LinkedIn Profile Backgrounds
LinkedIn applies stricter controls to automated requests. Sending too many requests in a short period can trigger temporary restrictions, which may result in failed or rejected video generation attempts. Recommended limits for LinkedIn:- Keep usage between 20–30 videos per day
- Avoid large bulk requests in a short timeframe
- Wait 24–48 hours before retrying
- Reset your LinkedIn session cookies before trying again (click here to check the required steps)
Website Backgrounds
Website backgrounds work differently from LinkedIn profile backgrounds.Public Websites
If a website is publicly accessible, there should generally be no access limitation specific to Sendspark. There is no wait time for public websites. If a public website is accessible, Sendspark should be able to access it.Private or Restricted Websites
If a website is private, requires a login, or otherwise restricts access, Sendspark may be unable to access the content needed to generate the background. In these cases, the limitation comes from the website’s access restrictions.Key Takeaway
LinkedIn and websites have different limitations:- LinkedIn: Temporary restrictions may occur due to automated requests or high usage. Wait 24–48 hours and reset your LinkedIn session cookies before retrying.
- Public websites: There is no wait time. Publicly accessible websites should generally be accessible to Sendspark.
- Private or restricted websites: Access is limited to what Sendspark can access publicly. If the content requires authentication or is otherwise restricted, Sendspark may not be able to use it.
