In this article, you’ll discover how to use LinkedIn Messages to deliver text, video, and voice messaging to individuals or groups on LinkedIn, and how to manage your LinkedIn Messages inbox.
LinkedIn Messages: What’s New
LinkedIn messaging has been around for a while, but new features are evolving to make Messages more valuable.
For example, LinkedIn Messages now lets you send a message to any of your co-workers, or people you’re in a group or event with—regardless of whether you are official LinkedIn connections. Additionally, if you receive a message request from someone who isn’t in your LinkedIn network, you can choose to accept it or privately decline.
Here’s how to make the most of these and other new features and functionalities.
Managing LinkedIn Messages
1: Set Up Smart Replies for LinkedIn Messages - Most messages that people send (and receive) on LinkedIn are text. LinkedIn has introduced Smart Replies to help you manage messages during a busy day. It’s AI-operated and pre-populates suggested responses. If you click on one of these options, it’s sent immediately. The most common responses shown are the thumbs-up icon, Not Sure, and Thanks.
The suggestions are based on the tone of your conversation. In this example, the message is friendly and enthusiastic so the suggested smart replies are informal.
2: Get Email Notifications for LinkedIn Messages - LinkedIn lets you choose whether you want to receive email notifications about your messages. To set your preferences, go to Settings & Privacy under the Me menu. On the Communications tab, select Email and then Conversations.
3: Filter and Manage LinkedIn Message Conversations - To manage your LinkedIn inbox, click on the Messaging tab at the top of the page. If you want to filter your existing messages, click on the Filter icon and choose All Messages, Archived, My Connections, Unread, InMail, or Spam.
4: Mute or Delete a LinkedIn Message Conversation - To mute or unmute a conversation on LinkedIn, select the message and then click on the three-dot icon at the top-right corner. From the drop-down menu, select Mute.
5: Report LinkedIn Messages - If you’ve received an abusive or unwanted message, you can report it to LinkedIn. LinkedIn has a built-in spam warning feature. If a message has been flagged as potentially inappropriate, LinkedIn will add this warning: “This message may contain unwanted or harmful content.” If the message is inappropriate, you can report it. You can also mark it as “Safe Content.”
6: React to, Forward, or Share LinkedIn Messages - To forward or share a LinkedIn message on desktop, hover over the message until a pop-up appears with options to react to or share it.
To react to the message, choose one of the emoji reactions. To forward the message to someone in your LinkedIn network, click on the three-dot icon in the pop-up and select the message to forward it inside LinkedIn. You’ll also find the option to share it via email.
Sending LinkedIn Messages
7: Send LinkedIn InMail - LinkedIn has a premium feature for messaging called InMail, which allows you to send a message to people who aren’t in your network. Premium users have a set number of InMail credits each month, depending on which paid plan they have. These credits are valid for 90 days and will roll over to the next month until the 90-day period expires. If someone accepts your InMail request, you’ll receive a credit back to your InMail account.
8: Share a Post via LinkedIn Messaging - If you see a post in your LinkedIn news feed and want to share it with someone in your network using LinkedIn Messages, click the Send option underneath the post.
9: Add an Attachment to a LinkedIn Message - You can add various types of files as attachments to LinkedIn messages, including documents (like PDFs and presentations), photos, video, GIFs, and emojis. The attachments can be up to 20MB in size.
10: Send a LinkedIn Voice Message - LinkedIn now lets you send voice messages via the [LinkedIn mobile app] to your 1st-degree connections. The message can be up to 1 minute in length, and after you record it, you’ll have the choice to send or delete it.
11: Send a LinkedIn Video Message - You can send a video directly from the LinkedIn mobile app or attach a pre-recorded video and send it via both desktop and mobile.
12: Create a LinkedIn Messages Group Chat - LinkedIn lets you create a group chat with multiple members of your network.
13: Start a LinkedIn Messages Event Chat - [LinkedIn Events] now has a feature where you can create a chat with other members attending the same event. If you’re hosting a webinar or attending a conference that has a LinkedIn event created around it, this is a good way to interact with fellow attendees. You can set up the event chat before the actual event date and also follow up with attendees during and after the event ends. As an event host, encourage your attendees to use the chat. To find the event chat, click on the event you’re attending or hosting. In the left-hand column, click on Chat.
