FAQs
Why does LinkedIn Learning prompt me for log in credentials?
The method outlined in this guide is not for authentication, users still need to authenticate either
using local username and password and/or Single Sign On credentials.
Why does an additional pop up open when I frame LinkedIn Learning courses in my
LMS?
When the html page loads, it will first check if the user has an auth cookie. If the user is not
logged in, LinkedIn will try to open a new tab to log the user in. After the user logs in, the login
window will close. Once a valid linkedin auth cookie has been found, the course will load inside
the iframe
