I would like to use n8n to automate posts to LinkedIn. However, when I include a mention ie. @Trevor Sullivan, it doesn’t register as a link to an entity. Secondly, when I include a link, there is no link preview on the LinkedIn post, like there is when you manually post on the website.
Question: How can I post to LinkedIn from n8n workflows, and include valid “mentions” and link previews?
Please share the workflow

Information on your n8n setup
n8n version: latest
Database you’re using (default: SQLite):
Running n8n with the execution process [own(default), main]:
Running n8n via [Docker, npm, n8n.cloud, desktop app]: Docker
The default type is “Text Only” which doesn’t do anything fancy.
It looks like for a mention you might need to use the Mention URN which expects something like @[Eddy](urn:li:person:1234) for a user or @[Devtestco] (urn:li:organization:2414183) for an organisation.
