Can i please know how do i get recent company updates from linkedin using OAuth and bind the output data to some placeholder on html page.

The 'OAuth User Token' of the applicaiton in the LinkedIn Developer site is NOT the oauth2token. To get the oauth2token you have to authenticate (as a user) following this guide: https://developer.linkedin.com/documents/authentication

Good luck! :)
