Authentication#

LinkedIn Ads uses OAuth authentication. When you connect your LinkedIn Ads account, Pipedream will open a popup window where you can sign into LinkedIn Ads and grant Pipedream permission to connect to your account. Pipedream securely stores and automatically refreshes the OAuth tokens so you can easily authenticate any LinkedIn Ads API.

Pipedream requests the following authorization scopes when you connect your account:
