CB Connect for LinkedIn problem was created by kdave321
I'm trying to set up remote login via LinkedIn. Their developers site has changed significantly since your Documentation:
www.joomlapolis.com/documentation/296-cb-connect/299-operations-guide/18367-how-to-configure-linkedin
They told me my application was provisioned but I still get an error message "Bummer, something went wrong." followed by a redirect with error message:
"Scope "r_emailaddress" is not authorized for your application"
This incompatibility is more recent. Searching the web I see this page about it:
community.auth0.com/t/linkedin-login-fails-with-error-scope-quot-r-emailaddress-quot-is-not-authorized-for-your-application/119133
Will that solution work or do you need to update CB Connect?

They may have changed their API. Will take a look at their documentation and see if any changes need to be made.

Ok, looks like they've completely deprecated their 3-Legged OAuth authentication. Will have to update the implementation to use OpenID. Will try to have that out today.

Ok, have updated the LinkedIn API usage. Wasn't too major of a change API wise. They deprecated how profile data was retrieved and changed the permission scopes. This fix is available in latest CB Connect build now released. You shouldn't need to do anything except update CB Connect if you've already configured your LinkedIn application and copied over the client id and client secret.

When I finally got the OAuth keys correct, it worked.

The Google login I had setting "SSO Login" and it logged me in to the CB account with the same gmail address and automatically linked the account. That's good!

I tried the "Pre-fill" setting instead for LinkedIn and it ignored the CB account with the same email and just asked for registration. With SSO Login, it just said log in with the CB accouint to link LinkedIn.
So not sure why there's different behavior there...

Pre-filled just pre-fills the registration form it doesn't do any checks beyond authenticating and filling out what profile data it can. To link an existing account you need to login first and then using the button will link the account.
