Office 365 / LinkedIn integration not available

I do not have Linkedin Integrated with Office 365 Home. I must have disconnected it over the years. How do I re-enable the functionality as I see in this article?

 

https://blog.linkedin.com/2017/september/250/adding-linkedin_s-profile-card-on-office-365-offers-a-simple-way

 

I don't see the Social Option under https://outlook.live.com/owa/?path=/options/people

 

 

I suspect it's because the app isn't listed in my account where I provide permissions but not sure how to add it here manually

 

Same for the Outlook desktop App:

 

Even though I have the option checked:

 

and the add-in is running

  • The article you cited refers to the integration between Office 365 (the service) with LinkedIn, you need a proper commercial Office 365 account for that. Plus, it's still rolling out afaik.

      No kidding?  You can't use Linkedin integration with Office365 Home?   I don't see it listed on https://products.office.com/en-us/compare-all-microsoft-office-products?tab=1 or on https://products.office.com/en-us/compare-all-microsoft-office-products?tab=2

      so maybe MSFT hasn't announced what version supports linkedin?

       

      I do see it in Word w/resume assistant

       

      In regards to rollout, I see that it started last November but there doesn't seem to be confirmation anywhere that its 100% rolled out https://blogs.office.com/en-us/2017/10/31/new-to-office-365-in-october-online-tools-microsoft-ai-and-more/ but it doesn't reference a version of Office 365.

        Scott, you will require a commercial licence as Vasil mentioned. This integration is not available in Home. This is separate to the Resume integration you see.
