# Connect a LinkedIn account

> Link the LinkedIn profiles your campaigns send from.

Each LinkedIn account you connect sends for your campaigns, with its own limits, warm-up and pause between actions.

![Connect accounts](https://mintcdn.com/kerux-f37add41/-FJtcSNgMiq_E0RE/images/senders.png?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=-FJtcSNgMiq_E0RE\&q=85\&s=4a28713c7a906dea36099c570928a9fa)

## Connect an account

**1. Open Connect accounts**

Click **Connect accounts** in the left menu, then **Connect LinkedIn account**.

**2. Pick a way to sign in**

* **Email, password and 2FA key** (recommended): if LinkedIn logs the account out, Kerux signs it back in by itself.
* **Email and password**: type your LinkedIn login. If LinkedIn asks for a code, Kerux asks you for it too.
* **Browser session**: use the LinkedIn you already have open, with the Chrome extension or your session cookie. You don't type your password.

**3. Finish**

When the window says the account is connected, click **Create a campaign** to start your first one, or **Done** to stay on the page. The account appears as a row with a health dot, its three limits for today as small bars (invitations, messages, profile visits) and **Warming up** while **warm-up** is on. Click **Manage** (or its name) to open its side panel with the full numbers, **Pause**, **Settings: hours, limits, pacing** and **Remove account**. It sends for real as soon as a campaign uses it: there is no dry run (see [Try a campaign without sending](/help/account-safety/dry-run.md)).

## Where it works from

Kerux keeps each LinkedIn profile working from one country, so LinkedIn always sees it in the same place: the country you connect it from.

Connecting a client's profile from another country (for example, as an agency)? Click **Connect accounts**, then **Manage** on its row and **Settings: hours, limits, pacing**, and in **Advanced settings** choose the **Account location**, then click **Save changes**. A connected account moves to that country right away, without signing in again; a disconnected one uses it the next time it signs in. **Detect when someone signs in** goes back to the country of whoever signs in next.

The **Timezone** in the same settings is separate: it sets the daytime that decides how often Kerux checks for invitations and profile views. See [How fast Kerux sees LinkedIn activity](/help/account-safety/how-fast-kerux-sees-linkedin.md).

## Common problems

> [accordion] LinkedIn asked for a verification code
>
> Type the code LinkedIn sent you (email, SMS or authenticator app) in the box that appears. If it expired, start again.

> [accordion] The account says Needs attention
>
> Click **Fix** on its row: the side panel says what happened and what to do. If LinkedIn logged the account out, click **Reconnect** there. Its campaigns wait and nothing is lost. See [Disconnected account](/help/account-safety/disconnected-account.md).

> [accordion] It says this LinkedIn account already had a free trial
>
> Each LinkedIn account gets one free trial. This one was already used in another organization's trial, so Kerux closed the new connection: the account says **Needs attention**, and **Fix** shows that message. Choose a plan in **Settings > Billing**, then connect the account again. Once you pay, this check no longer applies.

> [accordion] It says this LinkedIn account is already connected to Kerux
>
> Each LinkedIn account can be connected only once, in one workspace. Remove it from the other workspace first (or ask its owner to), then connect it here.

> [accordion] Where is the saved login kept?
>
> Encrypted on Kerux's servers, only to sign the account back in. Delete it any time with **Delete saved login** in the account's settings.
