LinkedIn Ads

Step-by-step guide to connecting your LinkedIn Ads account and syncing campaign data seamlessly.

Authorize Connection to LinkedIn Ads

Ensure that the account you're granting access to holds admin-level permissions for your LinkedIn Ads accounts.

Navigate to Data Integration -> Connectors

  1. Click on "Connect A new platform"
  2. Select LinkedIn Ads and follow the on-screen prompts to grant the necessary permissions to access and retrieve your data.

Upon successful connection of the LinkedIn account, you will be presented with a dashboard displaying your linked LinkedIn Ads accounts. This dashboard will also feature four buttons located directly beneath the LinkedIn Account section:

  • Add a New Account: This button enables you to link additional LinkedIn Ads accounts to the platform.
  • Reauthorize: This button allows you to refresh the authorization for your LinkedIn account, ensuring continued data access.
  • Test Connection: This button initiates a test to verify the connectivity between the platform and the LinkedIn account.
  • Delete Connection: This button severs the link between the platform and the LinkedIn account, removing the account and its data from the dashboard.
