When connecting your LinkedIn account to HubSpot, your company page may not appear as an option. This can occur in the following instances:
- If your LinkedIn account doesn't have the necessary permissions for the page.
- If a connection issue occurred when authorizing LinkedIn permissions for the HubSpot Social tool.
Review your LinkedIn page admin permissions
If you don't see your page when connecting your LinkedIn account to HubSpot, it usually means you do not have the necessary permissions:
- Ensure that you have Super Admin access for the LinkedIn Company pages you're connecting to HubSpot.
- Only users with administrator role permissions on LinkedIn can connect, users with content admin role permissions will not be able to do so.
To ensure you can connect your page to HubSpot, confirm that your LinkedIn account has the necessary LinkedIn page admin permissions:
- Log in to your LinkedIn account.
- In the left sidebar menu, under My pages, select the page to sync.
- In the left sidebar menu, scroll down and click Settings.
- In the right panel, click Manage Admins.
- Under the Page Admins tab, locate your LinkedIn user and confirm that you're listed as a super admin. If you're not listed as a LinkedIn page super admin, you will need to request admin access to the LinkedIn page.
- Once the admin permissions have been granted, navigate back to your HubSpot account and reconnect your LinkedIn account.
