Use this interactive demo to learn how to add closed captions to a LinkedIn video post.

Quick summary

Adding closed captions (CC) to a LinkedIn video makes your content more accessible and increases engagement by letting viewers follow along without sound. You can enable captions by uploading an SRT file directly through the LinkedIn post composer's media options.

Steps

Click to upload your video file into the post.
Click the CC option within the video settings to access caption controls.
Click on the SRT file to select your prepared captions file for upload.
Click the Apply button to save and display the closed captions on your video.

📌 Why this matters

Adding closed captions to LinkedIn videos is essential for maximizing reach and accessibility on the platform. Captioned videos perform significantly better because they can be watched in sound-off environments, which account for the majority of social media viewing. For sales and marketing professionals using LinkedIn to engage prospects, captioned video content improves watch time, comprehension, and overall message retention. This feature is especially valuable for LinkedIn Sales Navigator users who rely on video outreach to build relationships and drive pipeline.
