Share call and call conversions with LinkedIn Ads to power your paid social marketing efforts.
Step 1: Get your LinkedIn Ads Access Token and Conversion ID
Access Token: In LinkedIn Campaign Manager, go to your ad account, then Data > Signals Manager. Under Sources, click Direct API, then Generate Access Token.
Conversion setup: For each Invoca call or Signal you want to track, create a conversion under Measurement > Conversion tracking. Click Create a conversion, select Conversions API, give it a friendly name, select Direct API as the source, apply it to the relevant campaigns, and save.
Conversion ID: Click into each conversion you created and check the URL — the second numeric identifier after /conversions/ is the Conversion ID. For example, in https://www.linkedin.com/campaignmanager/accounts/1111111111/conversions/22222222, the Conversion ID is 22222222.
Step 2: Set up the integration in Invoca
- In the sidebar, click Integrations, then Manage Integrations.
- Click the LinkedIn Ads tile. If it shows “Learn More” instead, contact your Invoca CSM or account manager to enable it.
- Enter a friendly name for your LinkedIn Ads account, and enter the Access Token from Step 1.
Create an Action
- Enter a friendly name (include “Call” or the Signal name to distinguish Actions).
- Optionally filter by Profile or Campaign.
- Under Triggered By, choose All Calls or Signal.
- Enter the LinkedIn Conversion ID matching your Triggered By selection.
- Enter a Default Value as a fallback revenue amount — enter 0 if you don’t want one.
- Enter a 3-letter Currency Code, or leave blank to default to USD.
- Click Save. Repeat for each transaction type, using + New Action.
- Click the gear icon, select Invoca Tags, and locate the Tag on your website.
- Open the Revision History tab and create a new draft, or continue an existing one.
- Find the LinkedIn First Party Unique User ID (li_fat_id) parameter in the Marketing Data section.
- Set its Data Source Type to Cookie, enable it, and enter
li_fat_id as the Data Source Name — this relies on the LinkedIn Insight Tag on your site capturing this value in a first-party cookie.
- Test your changes, then click Save & Go Live. If you have multiple Invoca Tags, publish the update to each.
Validate that events are reaching LinkedIn Ads
- In Invoca, click Integrations, then Manage Integrations.
- Click the LinkedIn Ads tile, then the name of the Action you created.
- Review the Delivery Details chart, showing successes (green) and errors (red) by day for the last 30 days. Click Delivery History for individual requests and responses.
- In LinkedIn Campaign Manager, check the Conversion Status under Measurement > Conversion tracking — it should say “Active.”
