LinkedIn Post Image Size
A LinkedIn link share uses a 1200×627 px (1.91:1) preview. For an image post, upload 1080×1080 (square) or 1200×1500 (portrait) — portrait takes the most feed space on mobile. Keep the important content centered.

Link posts: 1200×627 (1.91:1)
When you share an article, LinkedIn shows the page's Open Graph image at 1200×627 px. Use the full size — small OG images render as a cramped left-side thumbnail that kills click-through.
Native image posts: square or portrait
For a photo or graphic you upload directly, 1080×1080 (1:1) is the safe default and 1200×1500 (4:5) grabs more vertical space in the mobile feed. LinkedIn compresses hard, so upload sharp PNGs for text-heavy graphics.
