in|force Connector

[Update April 18, 2012] Based on recent support calls we have received, we believe LinkedIn has started de-activating API keys. We have not received any confirmation from LinkedIn, but you may expect in the coming days the in|force Connector will no longer work in your org. We would like to thank all of our clients once again for your support, and we hope you are able to find reasonable alternatives for your users.

Redkite is very sorry to announce that we are no longer able to offer the in|force Connector to new users.

LinkedIn has informed us that existing installs of the in|force Connector will continue to work through January 31, 2012 at which point LinkedIn may decommission your API keys. We encourage you to take whatever steps you deem appropriate to notify your Salesforce users who may be leveraging the in|force Connector. For more information, please visit our FAQ where we will continue to provide any relevant updates.

Redkite would sincerely like to thank you for your support and interest in our app. Since its launch in November 2010, the in|force Connector has been one of the highest rated and most downloaded apps of all time.

The app is in the running for an AppExchange App of the Year award. If you would like to show your support and help push towards the award, we would love to see more 5-star reviews on the AppExchange listing.

Thank you again,
Your friends at Redkite
