Before you connect
The following are required:- A LinkedIn account.
- A LinkedIn Company Page (personal profiles are not supported).
- An Admin or Content Admin role on the Company Page being connected. If a role is missing, have a Page admin grant it in LinkedIn before connecting.
Connect LinkedIn Organic
1
Authorize a LinkedIn account
On the Data Sources page, search for LinkedIn Organic and select it. Log in to LinkedIn in the pop-up window, then click Allow to permit access. The access token is short-lived; a refresh token is stored at this step to renew it automatically.
2
Select the LinkedIn Page
On the data source settings, choose the LinkedIn Page to connect from the dropdown list. Each Page becomes a separate data source — additional Pages can be connected as additional data sources under the same OAuth grant.
3
Submit
Click Submit to complete the connection. Initial data availability can take up to one business day. Lifetime metrics begin accumulating from the connection date forward; the initial post backfill covers up to 367 days, and the daily-page backfill covers up to 90 days.
What gets imported
Data arrives at daily granularity in UTC via the LinkedIn REST API. Lifetime page metrics and post data refresh once per day at 00:00 UTC; the daily-page window refreshes the most recent 3 days on the same schedule. Follower demographic breakdowns are returned only when each bucket exceeds LinkedIn’s privacy threshold, so smaller Pages will see empty buckets for less common combinations. For the complete metric list and breakdown mapping, see the LinkedIn Organic data reference.Troubleshooting
A Company Page is not listed during selection
A Company Page is not listed during selection
The authorizing account does not hold an Admin or Content Admin role on the Page. Have a Page admin grant the appropriate role in LinkedIn, then reconnect.
Personal profile metrics are needed
Personal profile metrics are needed
LinkedIn’s organic API only exposes Company Page data. Personal profile activity is not available through this connector and must be tracked elsewhere.
Demographic buckets appear empty
Demographic buckets appear empty
LinkedIn aggregates demographic breakdowns only when each bucket is large enough to preserve member privacy. Smaller Pages will see empty values for less common industry, seniority, function, or location combinations — this is a platform restriction, not a connector limitation.
The connection has stopped refreshing
The connection has stopped refreshing
LinkedIn refresh tokens eventually expire, requiring full re-authorization. Reconnect the data source through the OAuth flow to mint a new token pair.
