Context

When you add new LinkedIn ad accounts to your authorization and update your datastream settings, you may find that these accounts don't appear in the extracts even though they are visible in both the authorization and datastream configuration. This typically occurs when attempting to backfill data for newly granted ad accounts.

Answer

The most common cause of this issue is insufficient access permissions for the LinkedIn ad accounts. To successfully extract data from LinkedIn ad accounts, you need to have either Account Manager or Campaign Manager and also Creative Manager role permissions in LinkedIn Campaign Manager for each ad account.

To resolve this issue:

1. Check your current role permissions for the affected ad accounts in LinkedIn Campaign Manager

2. Contact your LinkedIn account administrator to upgrade your permissions to either Account Manager or Campaign Manager role

3. Once the permissions are updated, the accounts should appear in your datastream extracts

After the permission changes are made, you should be able to successfully backfill historical data for the newly added accounts.
