Access ad accounts in Campaign Manager

Last updated: 1 month ago

Campaign Manager is LinkedIn’s online tool for creating and managing ad accounts and advertising campaigns. Navigate to Campaign Manager to create a new ad account or view ad accounts you have access to.

To go to Campaign Manager from your LinkedIn homepage:

Click the For Business dropdown menu in the upper-right corner of your LinkedIn homepage.
Click Advertise.
- The Advertise icon might appear to the right of the For Business dropdown menu. If so, click Advertise in the navigation bar.
The page that opens depends on whether you have access to existing ad accounts:
- Advertisers without access to an ad account are directed to a welcome screen to create a new ad account.
- Advertisers with existing ad accounts are directed to a list of their ad accounts.

Here's a tip

If you’re prompted to create a new ad account but believe you should already have access to an existing account, please contact a person with access to the account you need. Only a person on the ad account with account manager access can provide you with the permission you need to access the account. If you’re no longer in contact with a person who has access to the existing account, you might need to create a new ad account.

How someone is added to an ad account varies depending on if you have Business Manager:
If your ad account has been claimed by a Business Manager, a Business Manager admin will need to provide you with the appropriate permissions.
If your ad account hasn’t been claimed by a Business Manager, an account manager from the ad account can provide the appropriate permissions in Campaign Manager.
