Benefits and Changes
Migrating to the LinkedIn Ads connector means several changes to LinkedIn Business Manager reporting:
- Campaign and Ad Set Levels: RAR metrics are now available at both levels (LinkedIn's Oct 2025 labels; formerly campaign group and campaign)
- Unified Reporting: Access both LinkedIn Ads performance data and Revenue Attribution Reports in a single connector and enhanced reporting template
- Date Range: Must be between 30 and 366 days
- Live Data: LinkedIn RAR metrics now provide live data only, not cached data
- Granularity: Daily breakdowns for RAR metrics are no longer available, only all-time data
- Pipeline Amount: Currently unavailable (will be restored in future update)
LinkedIn's 2025 naming change: Since October 2025, LinkedIn Campaign Manager calls a Campaign Group a
Campaign, and a Campaign an
Ad set. This is a label change in LinkedIn only; your data and field names in Power My Analytics are unchanged. In your reports, LinkedIn's new "Campaign" maps to
Campaign Group and LinkedIn's new "Ad set" maps to
Campaign. See the
LinkedIn Ads Data Connector User Guide for the full mapping.
Step-by-Step Migration Process
Step 1: Connect LinkedIn Ads Data Source
If you don't already have a LinkedIn Ads data source connected, follow these steps:
- On the Sources page of your Power My Analytics Hub, click + Add new source
- Select LinkedIn Ads from the data connector gallery
- Sign in to your LinkedIn account to authenticate
- Grant the required permissions when prompted
- Wait for the initial data sync to complete (this may take several hours)
If you already have a LinkedIn Ads data source connected:
- Your existing LinkedIn Ads data source will automatically include Revenue Attribution Report functionality, and RAR metrics will be available in your reports within 24 hours. No additional action is required.
Step 2: Update Scheduled Exports
If you have scheduled exports using LinkedIn Business Manager data:
- Navigate to Exports in your PMA Hub
- Review all exports that reference LinkedIn Business Manager data
- Create new exports using the LinkedIn Ads connector and RAR metrics
- Update your export schedules and configurations
- Remove old exports that use the LinkedIn Business Manager connector
