Microsoft Teams personal – LinkedIn connection fails with AADSTS70011 invalid_scope.

2026-09-12T15:41:50.2666667+00:00

I am using Microsoft Teams with a personal Microsoft account. When I go to my profile > LinkedIn and select ‘Connect your LinkedIn account’, the authentication window does not load the LinkedIn authorization flow and ends up redirecting back to Teams. I reproduced this in the Teams desktop app, Chrome, and Chrome Incognito. Allowing pop-ups did not change the behavior. In Chrome DevTools, the token request to login.microsoftonline.com fails with HTTP 400: Error invalid_scope, AADSTS70011, stating the provided scope is not valid. The scope value isurn:microsoft:purpose LIBind/.default openid profile offline_access. Could you please confirm whether this is a known issue with the Teams personal account–LinkedIn integration and if the LIBind scope configuration needs correction on Microsoft’s side?

    I can connect to LinkedIn in Teams Web (Edge, Windows 11) using my personal account, but I'm already signed in to LinkedIn in this browser.

    On the other hand, in the Teams app, pressing the "Connect your LinkedIn account" button just opens a blank window and no connection options are available.

    Looks like the LinkedIn link is pointing to an URL that's only for work/school account, not for personal account.

    When you first sign into your personal account in Teams, did you receive a pop up asking you to pick Personal or Work/school?

    I know this used to work, but I can confirm it is not working on my Teams now either.
