Why is my LinkedIn status stuck on “Authenticating” and how do I resolve it?

If your LinkedIn status is stuck on “Authenticating” for more than an hour, it’s likely due to an error during the setup process.

To resolve this:

Delete the current LinkedIn connection from your Accounts settings.

Reconnect your LinkedIn account by going through the authentication process again.

Note: Deleting the connection will not delete any of your data. Once reconnected, Breakcold will automatically resync all your LinkedIn data.

This usually fixes the issue. If the problem persists after reconnecting, feel free to contact our support team at support@breakcold.com for further assistance.
