Instagram to LinkedIn post - Video thumbnail doesn't show

Hi people, I’ve just started using Zapier and love it so far. I have a question about zapping from an Instagram post to a LinkedIn post update (not a business page).

It works as expected for an image, but when I post a video, the thumbnail is black. See the action and post on LinkdedIn below. Am I missing something? Any help appreciated.

Hi @Kazzagaz 

As far as I know, Zapier doesn’t dictate what the thumbnail will be, rather LinkedIn scan the uploaded video and pick one themselves. Im not sure if would be possible for you to change therefore?

Hi @AndrewJDavison_Luhhu - OK I didn’t realise that. So I’m at the mercy of LinkedIn then! Thanks for the reply.
