Sync the audience with LinkedIn

You are here:

Sync the audience with LinkedIn

You can sync the audience created in CustomerLabs with LinkedIn as a customer list by creating a segment in CustomerLabs and syncing it with an existing list or a new list in LinkedIn Campaign Manager. Currently, you can send data to LinkedIn only as a customer list and not as an event.

Make sure you have completed the authentication of your LinkedIn account before syncing.

Here’s how you can sync the audience with LinkedIn as a customer list:

1. Create a new segment with the desired events or user traits in CustomerLabs → Go to “Schema” tab of the segment created.

2. Configure the Segment Schema as needed for the customer list to be created or synced in LinkedIn. Learn what is schema.

Note: If it shows “Error Fetching data”, make sure to re-authenticate your LinkedIn account from Menu → Destinations page → LinkedIn.

6. Go to the “Schema Mapping” tab after saving the list and map the segment schema with LinkedIn schema for the identifier and user traits that you have given in Step 2 by adding each schema using “+” button.

11. You can check the log for the segment from the “Logs” tab and also the log for LinkedIn by going to “List Sync” tab → LinkedIn → “Show Logs” for the latest update that has happened.

Check if the audience has been created/synced

You can check whether the list has been created/synced with LinkedIn after 10-15 minutes if you have enabled “Instant Sync” or after the refresh interval days set for the segment.

1. Go to LinkedIn Campaign Manager → Plan → Audiences → Matched → Check if the audience has been created under the same name as given in CustomerLabs or the existing list has been updated.
