Today LinkedIn has changed the permissions and availability of their API and divided the API into different groups: Sign-In, Sharing and Apply with LinkedIn.
The access to the last group (Apply with LinkedIn) now requires a special permission from LinkedIn.
Without the explicit permission from LinkedIn you can no longer retrieve data like for example a user’s job skills, certifications, patents and other information.
Until April 20, 2015 it was possible to use Social Login with Google without having to setup a Google application in your OneAll account. This was made possible by using Google OpenID for sign in.
Several months ago we already added the possibility to switch to the newer Google+ protocol simply by setting up Google in your OneAll account. This setup was optional but has now become a requirement as Google has shutdown OpenID.
More about these changes here:

OpenID can no longer be used to login with Google accounts. OpenID 2.0 support was shut down in order to focus on the newer open standard OpenID Connect, which provides greater security for your account.

Zapier makes it easy to connect your web services – like Evernote, MailChimp, Gmail and now also OneAll – together, saving time and improving productivity.
By linking services together, you can automate tasks – such as adding users to a MailChimp subscriber list after they have logged in with Social Login. These triggers are called automatically without you having to remember to do them each time.
It’s a really efficient way of using the social network profile data that Social Login provides. More information is available in our Zapier Integration Guide.
Three years ago today, OneAll came out of it’s beta and was rolled out to people worldwide.
