# LinkedIn OAuth 2.0
## Configuration
1. Go to the [LinkedIn Developer Console](https://www.linkedin.com/developers/apps) and create a new app.
2. Copy the `Client ID` and `Client Secret` from the app settings.
3. Apply the scopes you need
4. Add the `Redirect URL` to the app settings.
## Installation
Install the dependencies:
```bash
npm install
```
## Usage
Create a `.env` file in the root of the project and add the following:
```env
CLIENT_ID=
CLIENT_SECRET=
REDIRECT_URI=
```
Replace `` and `` with the `Client ID` and `Client Secret` from the LinkedIn app settings.
Start the server:
```bash
node server.js
```
Open your browser and navigate to `http://localhost:3000`. Click the `Login with LinkedIn` button and authorize the app. You will be redirected to the `Redirect URL` with the `code` in the query string. The server will exchange the `code` for an `access_token` and log them to the console.
