Two-step verification in Campaign Manager

Last updated: 4 months ago

Each Campaign Manager user is required to enable two-step verification on their individual LinkedIn account to help secure their ad accounts. If there are multiple users on an ad account, each person needs to enable two-step verification.  

Two-step verification (also known as two-factor authentication or 2FA) is a type of Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) that requires a person to use more than one form of verification to access an account, usually by "knowing something" such as a password and by "having something" such as a mobile device. Two-step verification can greatly reduce unauthorized access to most accounts. 

Enable two-step verification

You can enable two-step verification for your LinkedIn profile from your Account Settings page.

Go to your settings

When you enable two-step verification on your individual LinkedIn account, your phone number isn't visible or shared with other users on your ad accounts. Each person uses their own LinkedIn account to access their ad accounts. 

You can turn off two-step verification on your LinkedIn.com account; however, this will prevent you from taking certain actions in Campaign Manager. Turning your LinkedIn.com account two-step verification on and off won’t impact access to your LinkedIn.com account. 

If you’re having issues signing in to your Campaign Manager account, contact our customer support team using our webform.

Important to know

If you’ve authorized integrating Campaign Manager data with your marketing partner, you’ll need to re-authorize the integration if you enabled two-step verification before October 31, 2023, to allow the integration to continue running successfully. Please contact your marketing partner if you need help re-authenticating the integration.
