When sending a quick post in Mighty Networks to LinkedIn what does the “step output” content category shown by the Mighty Networks drop down menu mean when it comes showing the quick post’s contents on LinkedIn?

Hi ​@charlieu 

Post screenshots for us to have more info about what you are referring to.

Check if there are field tooltips to reference.

Hi ​@charlieu, welcome to the Community! 😁

Each step in a Zap has a Step Output field that includes its entire output, which would look something like this:

Generally you'd want to select this field if you need to pass the full context to AI actions or other steps that work better with structured data all at once.

Let us know if you have any more questions.

Hey ​@charlieu !
 

“Step output” just means the data coming from the previous Zap step. So in your case, it is the actual content from the Mighty Networks quick post, like the text, title, link, or media that Zapier pulled in from the trigger. The dropdown is basically asking which piece of that data you want LinkedIn to use in the post. For example, you might choose:

  • the post body as the LinkedIn text

  • the post title as the headline

  • the image URL as the media

It does not change the formatting on LinkedIn by itself, it just controls which data from Mighty Networks gets mapped into the LinkedIn post fields.\
