Send LinkedIn Mentions to Slack

What does it do?

Connect EmbedSocial with Claude and Slack to create an agent that pulls new LinkedIn posts mentioning your company page and posts them to a Slack channel. The agent summarizes each mention, adds the author, sentiment, and a link to the post, and flags the ones that need a reply.

Useful for

• Keeping track of collected mentions: your team sees collected posts that tag your company page without checking LinkedIn;
• Replying while the post is fresh: flagged mentions get answered while the conversation is still active;
• Keeping sales and marketing in the loop: everyone sees who talks about the brand in one channel.

How to send LinkedIn Mentions to Slack

1. Create your EmbedSocial account. Sign up for a free EmbedSocial trial to connect LinkedIn and turn on the MCP.
2. Connect your LinkedIn company page and add mentions as a source. EmbedSocial will collect posts that mention your page.
3. Let the widget collect posts. Give it a few days to pull in mentions.
4. Connect Slack in your AI tool. Connect Slack in a Claude environment with permission to post to the target channel. Confirm that posting is available before running the prompt.
5. Set up the EmbedSocial MCP in Claude. Paste the MCP URL into Claude and authorize access with your EmbedSocial account. Use a Claude environment that supports the connected tools required below.
6. Run the prompt. Ask Claude to send new collected mentions to Slack. Run it manually first. For a daily schedule, use a paid Claude plan with scheduled tasks enabled and the required connectors authorized. Review the task, approval mode, and schedule before confirming it.

Note: Depending on the connectors you are using, you may be prompted to authenticate your platform connections by logging into your accounts. LinkedIn tracking covers the connected company Page and its collected mentions only. It does not cover personal profiles or LinkedIn-wide keyword searches. Recurring runs require scheduled tasks on a paid Claude plan and access to all required connectors. Tasks using only remote connectors can run remotely; tasks requiring local files or apps run locally. Availability and organization settings vary. Test the workflow manually before scheduling it.

Your AI tool pulls the new mentions, summarizes them, and posts a clean digest to Slack that your team can act on right away.

Prefer to build this into your own app instead of running it from a prompt? The same posts, mentions, reviews and widget analytics are available through the social media API.
