Talks, product demos and short explainers shared on LinkedIn can be saved as MP4 files. SocialDownload handles native videos from public posts; posts only visible to signed in members may fail on the website, and the desktop app can use your own browser session for them.

Questions about LinkedIn
Can I download a video from a LinkedIn post?
Yes, if the post is public. Copy the link to the post, paste it here and tick Video.
Why does my LinkedIn link fail?
Many posts are only visible to signed in members. The website cannot reach them; the desktop app can use your own browser session.
Can I get the transcript of a LinkedIn video?
When the video has captions, tick Transcript and choose the format. A video without captions has no transcript.
Is it free to download LinkedIn videos?
One download per day is free with no account, up to 720p. Credit packs (20, 40 or 60 links) and the lifetime desktop app (47.99 EUR) cover heavier use.
