📌 You can install professional LinkedIn accounts in Welov, as long as you have their credentials. Personal accounts cannot be installed to third-party tools due to limitations of the LinkedIn API.

🚀 We can provide competitor profile data from Linkedin via scraping at an additional cost. Please contact the Support team via the tool's chat to request this.


Requirements to link your Linkedin account

In order to install LinkedIn professional profiles, the user must have one of the following roles: super administrator, analyst, or page creator.

The Linkedin account won't show up in the Integrations dropdown. What should I do?

  • Check that you are not trying to connect a personal profile.

  • If you are not an administrator, ask an administrator (or creator) to install the profile in Welov or assign you a professional page role.

    To do this, access the super administrator view of the page, click on Admin Tools, and select Manage administrators > Page administrators > Add administrator. Enter the name of the user you want to add, choose Analyst or Super administrator role, and save.
