We have received reports from several of our customers saying that Linkgroup Gold bot no longer works.

We have investigated the issue and it appear to be new LinkedIn group update, which affects proper work of the bot.

It looks like latest LinkedIn update disables ability to send group messages to people you are not connected with – the bot still works if you try to send message to group member connected with you.

As we know currently only small amount of LinkedIn accounts are affected by this update.

We are trying to find proper workaround to solve this issue, but if the limitation is made on LinkedIn server side, there is nothing we can do.

Thanks.

Update: It appears that this was not update, but bug in LinkedIn group message system, it was fixed by LinkedIn and the bot works fine again!
