## 💬 Description

A lot of people use LinkedIn Ads for top-funnel awareness and mid-funnel for lead generation or remarketing. With Less, you can extract all data regarding our campaigns, ads, and their respective performance. You can distinguish the goal (*objective*) of each campaign.

## 🤑 Use Case

Most organisations use LinkedIn Ads data for a consolidated marketing funnel. You can also use it to understand where your content resonates the most in terms of region and countricountryes and many other things.

## 🛠️ Setup

This Connector is fairly straightforward. If you struggling to find the Account ID in Step 2, you’re more than welcome to [schedule a call](https://calendly.com/thomas-less/speak-to-less) and we’ll help you out ✌️

### Step #1: Authenticate through LinkedIn

After clicking **Connect to Linkedin Ads** you’ll be redirected to the page below (you might need to log in first). Click *Allow* and validate that **Less** can extract your LinkedIn Ads data.

### Step #2: Ad Account ID

Next, you need to Copy/Paste your Linkedin Ads Account ID into the **Less** Linkedin Ads configuration window. Linkedin has its own guide [here](https://www.linkedin.com/help/lms/answer/a424270) (see “LinkedIn Ads account ID number”) from which the screenshot below is taken from.

The direct link to the Linkedin Campaign Manager is [here](https://www.linkedin.com/ad-beta/accounts).

### Step #3: Number of days to include

Input (in days) how long back you want to include data. This is a dynamic input, so if you put in 365 and have your Linkedin Ads Connector run daily, we’ll make sure you always have data from the past 365 days.
