ugc Post activity - share a MultiPhoto or Carousel post
Posts created with multiple images (MultiPhoto/Carousel) use a nested media payload instead of the flat media~/elements layout shown in the examples above. The media~ field expands into a multiPhotoEntities collection, and each entity must be further expanded through actionableContent to reach the individual image details:
media~ → multiPhotoEntities[] → actionableContent → content → value → com.linkedin.content.MediaContent → media~ → elements
Note
Single-image posts continue to use the flat media~/elements layout. Only posts with multiple images (MultiPhoto/Carousel) use the nested multiPhotoEntities model described here. Do not rely on shareMediaCategory to detect this case — multi-image posts have been observed with shareMediaCategory values such as URN_REFERENCE, not a dedicated carousel-only value. Instead, check structurally for a multiPhotoEntities array under media~.
Important
Compliance Events serves the decorated snapshot that was archived at the time the event was ingested. The payload shape is fixed at ingestion time and is not re-decorated later. Events ingested before the MultiPhoto/Carousel content model rollout (~early June 2026) will retain the older flat structure, while events ingested after the rollout will show the nested structure documented here. See the Compliance Events API overview for more details.

Parsing guidance for multi-image posts
To retrieve the individual images of a MultiPhoto/Carousel post from a Compliance Event, partners should:
- Check for a
multiPhotoEntitiesarray underprocessedActivity.specificContent.com.linkedin.ugc.ShareContent.media[].media~to identify a multi-image post. Do not key offshareMediaCategory— it has been observed asURN_REFERENCEfor multi-image posts, not a carousel-specific value. - Iterate
media~.multiPhotoEntities[]. - For each entity, drill into
actionableContent.content.value.com.linkedin.content.MediaContent.media~to reach that image'selements(andpaging, if present). - Read each image's downloadable identifier(s) from
elements[].identifiers[], which includesidentifier(the URL),mediaType,identifierType,file, andidentifierExpiresInSeconds.
Partners with existing parsers that only handle the flat media~/elements layout should update them to also handle this nested structure for multi-image posts, while retaining support for the flat layout for single-image posts and for older archived events captured before the rollout.
