You need to pass the "client_id" parameter

Getting this error: You need to pass the "client_id" parameter when I add the client_id manually to the url and hit return it works fine?

I'm having the same issue. Did you figure out what is causing this ?

[jeffgipson]

No I never got a response

This is caused by the client_id not being put into the linkedin log in URL. Has anyone encountered a problem like that before?

Hi there, did anyone figure out a way?

For others that hit this, it's pretty easy to work around by overwriting the authorize_url.

Example for those using Devise:

config.omniauth :linkedin, ENV['LINKEDIN_APP_ID'], ENV['LINKEDIN_APP_SECRET'], {
    scope: 'r_liteprofile,r_emailaddress',
    authorize_url: "https://www.linkedin.com/oauth/v2/authorization?response_type=code&client_id=#{ENV['LINKEDIN_APP_ID']}"
  }
