## Browser Selectors
Key LinkedIn selectors (as of 2026):
Post button: button[aria-label="Start a post"] Post editor: div.ql-editor[data-placeholder] Submit post: button.share-actions__primary-action Like button: button[aria-label*="Like"] Comment button: button[aria-label*="Comment"] Profile stats: section.pv-top-card-v2-ctas
## Rate Limits
LinkedIn enforces activity limits. Stay under:
- Posts: 2-3 per day max
- Comments: 20-30 per day
- Connection requests: 100 per week
- Profile views: Natural browsing pace
## Troubleshooting
- **Login required**: Ensure browser profile has active LinkedIn session
- **Rate limited**: Reduce activity, wait 24h
- **Selector not found**: LinkedIn may have updated UI, check selectors
