Troubleshooting Missing Pages When Connecting LinkedIn

If your LinkedIn Page isn’t appearing when you try to connect, it’s often due to admin rights or permissions:

  • Ensure you're logged into the LinkedIn account with admin access.
  • Confirm you’re listed as a Super Admin for the Page in LinkedIn settings (Content Admin and Analyst roles won’t work).
  • Reconnect SmarterQueue and ensure all requested permissions are approved during the connection flow (follow steps here to reconnect).
  • If the Page still isn’t showing:
    • Log out of both LinkedIn and SmarterQueue.
    • Log back into LinkedIn using the account with admin access.
    • Open SmarterQueue and go to Profiles → Add Profile → LinkedIn.
    • Reconnect LinkedIn and approve all permissions for SmarterQueue when prompted.
