How it works Features and Benefits Connection Settings & Tutorial

LinkedIn integration

In fact, you only need to do the 5 following steps to get your LinkedIn integration started.

1: Set up your connection direction as required: one-way, in this case.

2: Set up your data source, in this case, LinkedIn.

3: Set up your target, for example, SharePoint.

4: Set up your mapping.

5: Run your connection!

Step 1: After the quick installation of your Layer2 Cloud Connector and a creation of your new connection, you then need to name your connection, and define the direction of the synchronization.

Step 2 LinkedIn integration source setup

Step 2: Select „Data Entity 1“ which can be found inside the folder „Data Entities“. Name your Entity and select the matching data provider from the list of included / installed data providers.

Step 2.5 LinkedIn integration connection string setup

Step 2.5: Copy and paste the text you will find below this introduction into the "Connection String"/"Select Statement" fields. Please adjust any placeholder with your own requirements.

Step 3 LinkedIn integration target setup

Step 3: Now you have to configure the settings for your desired target (Data Entity 2). Please click on "Data Entity 2” and search for the specific target configuration on our website. Then proceed and fill in the remaining input fields accordingly.

Step 4: Please click on “Mappings” which can be found in the folder of your created connection. After that, you have to configure your own mapping like shown in the screenshot (example) to get decent data.

Step 5: If you have finalized your Data Entity 1 and 2, you need to go back to your first connection set up window of Step 1. You can now start your synchronization by clicking on “Run Now” at the bottom of the configuration window.

Good to know: The “Preview Data” function is a good way to see the result of your data integration in a preview mode. If you do not like the result, you can always make changes in the connection string, in the mapping, and the „Select Statement”.

Example: Data to be integrated into SharePoint via Layer2 Cloud Connector.
