LinkedIn Page Posts
The LinkedIn Page Posts connection reads the posts on the LinkedIn company Pages you run, with their impressions, clicks, reactions, comments and reposts. Apex shows them on the Posts tab under Attribution, next to what your ads did.
It is its own connection, separate from LinkedIn Ads. You can connect one without the other.
Authentication
Click Connect
On the Integrations page, find the LinkedIn Page Posts card and click Connect. You can also start it from Set up Apex → Attribution → Connect your posts.
Sign in to LinkedIn
Sign in with a LinkedIn account that is an admin of your company Page. Apex reads every Page that account is an admin of.
Approve read-only access
Approve the permissions below. Apex never posts, edits, deletes or comments.
| Permission | Why Apex asks |
|---|---|
r_organization_social | Read your Pages' posts |
rw_organization_admin | List the Pages you're an admin of and read each post's numbers. LinkedIn offers no read-only version; Apex only reads with it |
Data Synced
Each sync reads every Page's published posts from the last 13 months.
| Figure | LinkedIn's name |
|---|---|
| Views | Impressions |
| Reach | Unique impressions |
| Clicks | Clicks |
| Likes | Reactions |
| Comments | Comments |
| Shares | Reposts |
If LinkedIn has no numbers for a post, Apex still lists it and leaves the numbers blank rather than 0.
How Apex Uses This Data
- Posts tab and post pages list every post with its numbers and the visits and sales that probably came from it.
- Followers shows each Page's followers today and how many it gained over the dates you picked, counted once a day from the day you connect.
- Top posts and Organic vs paid cards on Attribution, shown when the switch is on Organic or Both.
- Campaign content. A post that carries an Apex Link shows under that piece of content on the campaign page.
Disconnecting
Disconnecting stops new reads, withdraws Apex's access at LinkedIn, and deletes the posts Apex read through it, with the pictures it copied. LinkedIn Ads is untouched.
Troubleshooting
| Issue | Cause | Fix |
|---|---|---|
| "Runs no company Page" | The account isn't an admin of any Page | Ask a Page admin to add you, or have them connect |
| One Page missing | LinkedIn refused that Page's posts | Check you are still its admin, then connect again |
