I can't modify fields in Linkedin

[karimsamir]

This is the Code I am using

<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers\Auth;

use App\Http\Controllers\Controller;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Auth\AuthenticatesUsers;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use Socialite;
use App\Models\User;

class LoginController extends Controller {

use AuthenticatesUsers;

    /**
     * Where to redirect users after login.
     *
     * @var string
     */
    protected $redirectTo = '/home';

    /**
     * Create a new controller instance.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function __construct() {
        $this->middleware('guest')->except('logout');
    }

    /**
     * Redirect the user to the GitHub authentication page.
     *
     * @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
     */
    public function redirectToLinkedin() {
        $fields = [
            "id", "firstName", "lastName",
            "maidenName", "headline", "specialties",
            "positions", "pictureUrl", "emailAddress"
        ];

        return Socialite::with('linkedin')
                        ->fields($fields)
                        ->redirect();
    }

    /**
     * Obtain the user information from GitHub.
     *
     * @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
     */
    public function handleLinkedinCallback(Request $request) {
        $linkedinUser = Socialite::driver('linkedin')->user();

        // check if user exists in DB
        $user = User::where('linkedin', '=', $linkedinUser['id'])->first();

        // if user doesn't exit go to sign up page and populate form
        if (!$user) {

            $request->session()->put('linkedinUser', $linkedinUser->user);

            return redirect()->route('signup');
        }
//                if user exists login him/her
        Auth::loginUsingId($user->id);

        return redirect('/');
    }
}

but positions never return, I debugged the file

vendor/laravel/socialite/src/Two/LinkedInProvider.php
and var_dump
$fields
and it didn't change the default fields

Since we don't support that field ourselves it's best that you try asking this elsewhere:

• Laracasts Forums
• Laravel.io Forums
• Discord
• Larachat
• IRC
• StackOverflow
