If you're looking to manage a team account with other connected users (not profiles), this article may be helpful.
Connect LinkedIn Account to We-Connect
To add a LinkedIn account to your We-Connect plan, follow the steps below:
Step 1: Navigate to 'LinkedIn Accounts' in the campaign settings.
From here, you can manage your current accounts and add new ones.
Step 2: Click 'Add New' from the LinkedIn Accounts page.
You can also find an 'Add New' button to connect additional LinkedIn accounts from your profile photo in the top right-hand corner of the screen (between dark/light mode and the notifications bell).
Step 3: Enter the required LinkedIn criteria.
You'll need to enter the following information:
Your LinkedIn email and password
Account time zone
Sleep hours (during sleep mode, We-Connect will stop syncing with your LinkedIn account for an additional layer of protection)
Location (where this account is located)
Based on your location, We-Connect will provide you with a dedicated IP address. You can also bring your own proxy IP. To do so, enable the "Use your own IP" switch, and a popup will appear for the required details. For more information about BYOIP, please read this article.
We-Connect will now sync to your LinkedIn profile.
Note: Syncing can take a few minutes as We-Connect imports all current network connections for retargeting. Additionally, if you close the window, you may need to enter a security pin in your email or mobile device.
Edit a Previously Connected LinkedIn Account
You can edit any LinkedIn account by clicking the 'edit' icon in the actions column on your 'LinkedIn Accounts’ settings page. Follow along with the instructions below:
Step 1: Navigate to 'LinkedIn Accounts' in the campaign settings.
Step 2: Click the 'edit' icon of the account you want to edit.
Upon clicking the edit icon, you'll be taken to the LinkedIn profile information. From this page, you can edit the time zone, location, sleep hours, and update your LinkedIn password or email.
Pause Multiple LinkedIn Accounts
You can also pause (and resume) one or multiple LinkedIn accounts connected to your We-Connect subscription. To pause a specific account, select the LinkedIn account you want to pause from the 'LinkedIn Accounts' page and click and click the relevant icon in the 'Actions' column.
Please note that pausing a campaign will not pause your monthly subscription.
