Where has the LinkedIn search on Dropbox Dash gone?
do you know what happened to the LinkedIn search functionality within Dash? I used to be able to enter "li" and it would only do a search for cached LinkedIn pages but that feature seems to be gone. ...

Dropbox StaffHi from me too mattgitt13!
Could you clarify if you're having this issue with the web extension or the desktop Dash app or both?
Also, can you send us a couple of screenshots of what you get on your end when you try the steps you used to search for your LinkedIn pages?
I am having this issue on the desktop version of Dash for Mac. but I haven't tested it anywhere else. Previously, when I would search fora LinkedIn profile that I had previously found on my Chrome browser, it would pull up a direct link to that person's profile and let me copy the URL of their profile. I can't do that anymore. See attached screenshot for what happens when I search for my own name which used to pull up my profile. See redacted photo below.
I guess the broader question is how do I search directly within LinkedIn and not through other apps.

Hey mattgitt13, do you remember being able to connect LinkedIn to Dropbox Dash in order to achieve the behavior you mentioned?
- Yes, it used to be an app that was directly connected. I don’t see it anymore.

Hi mattgitt13, at the moment all the supported apps can be found here, and it doesn't seem like LinkedIn is part of the list.
Keep in mind that if LinkedIn has some trouble being connected, then there's no way to use Dropbox Dash with it.
