Understanding What LinkedIn Ads Is?
LinkedIn Ads is the perfect promotional tool for professionals or businesses wanting to reach people in a professional setting through social media. LinkedIn Ads is a tool trusted by many businesses from all industries to generate leads and achieve outreach targets.
LinkedIn Ads provides us with information on how boosted posts are interacted with by targeted leads on LinkedIn by giving us data on Lead Generation, Ad Optimization, and data combined for LinkedIn and LinkedIn Ads.
Connecting LinkedIn Ads On Oviond
LinkedIn Ads connects to Oviond using your LinkedIn account login details (email address and password). This authentication only needs to be done once per LinkedIn Ads account. LinkedIn has a completely different API to LinkedIn Ads, therefore, they exist as separate integrations on Oviond.
We have a comprehensive help center article that will answer all questions around the authentication, permissions, and limitations for LinkedIn Ads.
