How to Integrate Qlik with LinkedIn Ads

This tutorial shows how to connect Qlik Sense to LinkedIn Ads using the REST connector to load campaign and performance data for analysis.

Notes:

• Qlik Sense does not have a native LinkedIn Ads connector. The REST connector using the LinkedIn Marketing API is the recommended approach.
• You need a LinkedIn developer app with the r_ads and r_ads_reporting permissions and a valid OAuth 2.0 access token.
  

1. Log in and open your Qlik Sense app, and click Data load editor from the top menu.
2. Click Create new connection in the Data connection panel on the right.
3. Select REST from the connector list.
4. Enter the LinkedIn Marketing API endpoint URL  (for example, a campaign analytics endpoint).
5. Add an Authorization header with your LinkedIn OAuth access token to grant Qlik access to your LinkedIn Ads account data. Then, click Test Connection to verify the request
6. Click Create to store the connection. You can now access the saved connection, browse the available tables, and select the ones you want to load into your app.
