LinkedIn Account Connection & Setup
Detailed guide for connecting your LinkedIn account:
Prerequisites:
- Active paid subscription (any paid plan)
- Active LinkedIn seat ($9/month from Billing page)
- LinkedIn account in good standing (no current restrictions)
Connection Steps:
- Go to LinkedIn > Accounts and click 'Connect Account'
- Choose your connection method — credentials, cookie-based, or OAuth
- Enter your LinkedIn login details
- If 2FA is enabled: you'll be prompted for a verification code. Enter it within 10 minutes.
- Wait for the connection to complete — your account will show 'Connected' status
Account Types Detected:
- Free — Standard LinkedIn (150 invites/week cap)
- Premium — LinkedIn Premium (200 invites/week cap)
- Sales Navigator — Extended search and InMail access
- Recruiter — Recruiter-specific features and limits
Strategy Assignment:
The system assigns a safety strategy based on your account history:
• New Account — 6-week ramp-up, most conservative limits
• Established — 4-week ramp-up, moderate limits
• Veteran — 2-week ramp-up, higher limits
• Recovery — 8-week ramp-up, applied after account restrictions
Proxy Support:
Each account gets a dedicated fixed IP — your traffic never routes through a shared server. Configure during Step 2 of connection:
• Auto — System-assigned proxy geo-located near your real IP (default, recommended)
• Country — Select a specific country from 40+ available locations
• Custom — Provide your own proxy URL (HTTP, HTTPS, or SOCKS5 with optional auth)
For full details, supported countries, and custom proxy format, see the 'LinkedIn Proxy & IP Security' guide in this section.
Reconnection:
If your LinkedIn session expires, the account status changes to 'Needs Verification'. All active campaigns are auto-paused. After reconnecting, campaigns automatically resume.
