Use this interactive demo to learn how to share a YouTube video on your LinkedIn profile.

Quick summary

Sharing a YouTube video on LinkedIn takes just three steps: copy the video URL from YouTube, open a new LinkedIn post, paste the link, and hit Post. No embedding tools or third-party apps are required — LinkedIn automatically generates a video preview from the pasted URL.


Steps

  1. Go to YouTube and copy the URL of the video you want to share.
  2. Go to LinkedIn and click 'Start a post' on your dashboard.
  3. Paste your YouTube link into the post composer and click the 'Post' button.
  4. Your YouTube video is now successfully shared on LinkedIn.

📌 Why this matters

Sharing YouTube videos directly on LinkedIn is one of the fastest ways to boost content engagement and reach a professional audience without leaving the platform. LinkedIn automatically generates a rich video preview from a pasted YouTube URL, making it easy to drive views and showcase thought leadership. This matters for marketers, creators, and sales professionals who want to repurpose video content across channels with zero friction. Mastering this simple workflow maximizes the reach of every YouTube video you produce.
