# Linkedin Adds Passkey Features

## Key Facts

- **Conditional UI** (passkey autofill) is already live on LinkedIn's web app, a strategy
  other platforms like Shopify did not adopt from day one of their rollout.
- LinkedIn's **passkey FAQ page** covers Chrome, Edge, Safari, Android and iOS, including
  cross-device authentication via QR codes and Bluetooth, signaling a full cross-platform
  launch.
- LinkedIn is a **Microsoft subsidiary** and Microsoft is a core FIDO Alliance member.
  Microsoft 365 and GitHub already support passkeys ahead of LinkedIn's rollout.
- LinkedIn's **business professional** audience is considered more passkey-ready than
  general consumers due to higher adoption of the latest hardware and software.
- No confirmed date exists for LinkedIn's **full passkey rollout**. At time of writing,
  passkey creation was not yet available in user security settings.

## 1. Passkey Autofill (Conditional UI) Already Rolled Out

Several weeks ago, we noticed that the
"[Passkeys Autofill](https://www.corbado.com/blog/webauthn-conditional-ui-passkeys-autofill)" (Conditional UI)
option had appeared in LinkedIn's web application. This marks an indication of LinkedIn's
broader rollout of passkeys, supporting [Conditional UI](https://www.corbado.com/glossary/conditional-ui) from
day one on - a strategy that other companies, such as [Shopify](https://www.corbado.com/blog/shopify-passkeys),
did not adopt in their initial rollout phase. However, since our discovery a few weeks
ago, we have regularly checked LinkedIn's security settings but have not found an option
to create passkeys. Additionally, no popup has appeared after successful login to offer
the creation of a passkey.

## 2. Passkey FAQ Pages Already Created

In addition to implementing [Conditional UI](https://www.corbado.com/glossary/conditional-ui), LinkedIn has also
developed a [passkeys FAQ page](https://www.linkedin.com/help/linkedin/answer/a1621596) to
guide and educate users on their usage. Notably, the FAQs include information on cross-
device authentication via QR codes and Bluetooth. From a support standpoint, the FAQ
articles shows guides for Chrome, Edge, Safari, as well as
[Android](https://www.corbado.com/blog/how-to-enable-passkeys-android) and [iOS](https://www.corbado.com/blog/webauthn-errors) apps,
indicating a cross-platform rollout of passkeys at Linkedin.

## 3. Whats the Strategy Behind Passkeys for Linkedin?

Given that LinkedIn is a subsidiary of Microsoft - one of the backers of passkeys and a
core member of the [FIDO alliance](https://www.corbado.com/glossary/fido-alliance) - this move seems like a
logical step. Further emphasizing this likelihood is the fact that
[Microsoft 365](https://www.corbado.com/blog/microsoft-passkeys-best-practices-analysis) already supports
passkeys, as well as GitHub. Such indications suggest LinkedIn could very well be
Microsoft's next platform to embrace passkeys.

LinkedIn's expansive user base interacts with the platform across a myriad of devices.
Many have the LinkedIn app on their [iOS](https://www.corbado.com/blog/webauthn-errors) or
[Android](https://www.corbado.com/blog/how-to-enable-passkeys-android) smartphones and simultaneously access
LinkedIn on desktops powered by Windows or macOS. Introducing passkeys can significantly
enhance the cross-device experience, especially if synchronized passkeys from cloud
accounts like [Google Password](https://www.corbado.com/blog/how-to-use-google-password-manager) Manager, Apple
[iCloud Keychain](https://www.corbado.com/glossary/icloud-keychain), and modern password managers such as
[1Password](https://www.corbado.com/blog/1password-passkeys-best-practices-analysis) and
[Dashlane](https://www.corbado.com/blog/dashlane-passkeys), are used.

It's also important to note that a significant segment of LinkedIn's audience comprises
business professionals. These individuals often have the latest hardware and software,
suggesting a higher degree of passkey-readiness within this demographic compared to
others.

## 4. The Rollout of Passkeys on LinkedIn

While there's no confirmed date for LinkedIn's full passkey rollout, the platform is
unlikely to lag, especially given the swift adoption of passkeys by other leading tech
platforms (e.g. [Revolut](https://www.corbado.com/blog/revolut-passkeys), [PayPal](https://www.corbado.com/blog/paypal-passkeys),
[TikTok](https://www.corbado.com/blog/tiktok-passkeys)).

## Frequently Asked Questions

### Has LinkedIn fully rolled out passkeys and can I create one on my account?

As of the article's writing, LinkedIn had implemented Conditional UI (passkey autofill) on
its web app but had not yet enabled passkey creation in security settings. No confirmed
rollout date exists, though the published FAQ pages and live Conditional UI implementation
signal that a full rollout is imminent.

### Why is LinkedIn adding passkey support now?

LinkedIn is a subsidiary of Microsoft, a core FIDO Alliance member that has already
enabled passkeys on Microsoft 365 and GitHub. LinkedIn's user base of business
professionals, who typically have access to the latest hardware and software, represents a
demographic with higher passkey-readiness than general consumers.

### Which browsers and platforms will LinkedIn support for passkey login?

LinkedIn's passkey FAQ page documents support for Chrome, Edge and Safari on desktop as
well as Android and iOS mobile apps. The FAQ also covers cross-device authentication via
QR codes and Bluetooth, indicating a broad cross-platform rollout strategy.

### What is Conditional UI and why does it matter for LinkedIn's passkey strategy?

Conditional UI, sometimes called passkey autofill, automatically surfaces a passkey prompt
within the login field without requiring a separate user action, reducing friction during
sign-in. LinkedIn's decision to implement Conditional UI from the start is notable because
other platforms such as Shopify did not include this feature in their initial passkey
rollout.
