How to Connect Your LinkedIn Account

To run LinkedIn campaigns through SalesTarget.ai, you need to connect your LinkedIn account. All outreach actions — connection requests, messages, profile visits, and more — are sent directly from your personal LinkedIn account.

Before You Connect

  • You must have an active LinkedIn account in good standing

  • LinkedIn Premium or Sales Navigator is recommended for higher daily limits and InMail access, but is not required for basic outreach

  • Only one LinkedIn account can be connected per SalesTarget.ai user seat

  • Your LinkedIn account must not currently be restricted or flagged by LinkedIn

Step 1: Go to LinkedIn Account Settings

  1. Log in to your SalesTarget.ai account.

  2. From the left sidebar, click LinkedIn Outreach.

  3. Click Settings → LinkedIn Account.

  4. Click Connect LinkedIn Account.

Step 2: Log In to LinkedIn

  1. A LinkedIn login window will appear.

  2. Enter your LinkedIn email address and password.

  3. Click Sign In.

Note: SalesTarget.ai connects to LinkedIn via a secure browser session. Your credentials are encrypted and never stored in plain text.

Step 3: Complete Any LinkedIn Verification

LinkedIn may prompt you with an additional verification step such as:

  • Email verification — LinkedIn sends a code to your registered email

  • Phone verification — LinkedIn sends a code to your registered phone number

  • CAPTCHA — a visual challenge to confirm you're human

Complete the verification step as prompted — this is LinkedIn's standard security process and is expected when connecting from a new location or device.

Step 4: Confirm the Connection

  1. Once verified, you'll be redirected back to SalesTarget.ai.

  2. Your LinkedIn account will appear as Connected under Settings → LinkedIn Account.

  3. You'll see your LinkedIn profile name, profile photo, and connection count confirmed in the dashboard.

Managing Your LinkedIn Connection

From Settings → LinkedIn Account you can:

  • View connection status — see if your account is active and connected

  • Reconnect — if your session has expired, click Reconnect and log in again

  • Disconnect — remove the LinkedIn account from SalesTarget.ai at any time
