You can manage the types of messages you receive on LinkedIn from your Settings & Privacy page.

Before you begin

  • You can’t stop receiving messages from your 1st-degree connections, but you can block a member to prevent them from interacting with you.

  • Only Premium members can manage Open Profile messages.

To manage the types of messages you want to receive:
  1. Click the Me icon at the top of your LinkedIn homepage.
  2. Select Settings & Privacy from the dropdown.
  3. Click the Data privacy on the left pane.

  4. Select Messages under Who can reach you.

  5. Turn on or off the toggle next to each type of message.
