GoHighLevel LinkedIn Lead Ads Integration Guide

If you use ClickUp or other tools to manage tasks, you can streamline your lead capture by connecting LinkedIn Lead Ads directly to GoHighLevel. This integration lets you sync new leads from your LinkedIn campaigns straight into your CRM, automate follow-up, and ensure your sales team never misses an opportunity.

This how-to article walks you step-by-step through setting up the official LinkedIn Lead Gen Forms integration inside GoHighLevel so you can start working your leads immediately.

Why Connect LinkedIn Lead Ads to GoHighLevel

When your LinkedIn Lead Gen Forms are connected to GoHighLevel, every new form submission can instantly appear as a contact in your account. This saves time and reduces errors from manual imports or CSV uploads.

With the integration in place, you can:

  • Automatically create contacts in GoHighLevel whenever someone submits a LinkedIn lead form
  • Trigger nurturing workflows and automations from new LinkedIn leads
  • Track lead sources and campaigns inside the GoHighLevel CRM
  • Respond faster to high-intent prospects from LinkedIn

Before you start, make sure you have the correct permissions in both LinkedIn and your GoHighLevel account.

Prerequisites for the GoHighLevel LinkedIn Integration

To successfully connect LinkedIn Lead Gen Forms with GoHighLevel, you need the following:

  • An active GoHighLevel account with admin access
  • A LinkedIn account with access to Campaign Manager
  • Admin or lead access to the LinkedIn Page that owns the ads
  • At least one LinkedIn Lead Gen Form associated with a campaign

Once these are in place, you can start the connection process inside GoHighLevel.

How to Connect LinkedIn Lead Ads with GoHighLevel

Follow these steps to authorize and connect your LinkedIn Lead Gen Forms to GoHighLevel.

Step 1: Open GoHighLevel Integrations Area

  1. Log in to your GoHighLevel account.
  2. Go to the agency view or account view where you want to manage integrations.
  3. Navigate to the Settings section.
  4. Locate and open the Integrations area.

This is where you manage third-party connections, including LinkedIn Lead Ads, for GoHighLevel.

Step 2: Connect Your LinkedIn Account to GoHighLevel

  1. In the Integrations section, look for the LinkedIn or LinkedIn Lead Gen Forms integration tile.
  2. Click the option to Connect or Sign in with LinkedIn.
  3. A LinkedIn login window will appear. Enter your LinkedIn credentials if you are not already signed in.
  4. Review the requested permissions that GoHighLevel needs to access your LinkedIn ad accounts and lead forms.
  5. Click Allow or Authorize to complete the connection.

After successful authorization, GoHighLevel can read your LinkedIn ad accounts, pages, and associated Lead Gen Forms.

Step 3: Choose the LinkedIn Ad Account and Page

  1. Back inside GoHighLevel, select the LinkedIn Ad Account you want to use from the dropdown list.
  2. Choose the specific LinkedIn Page that owns your lead forms and campaigns.
  3. Confirm the selection to proceed.

This ensures GoHighLevel fetches lead forms and leads from the correct LinkedIn Page and ad account.

Step 4: Map LinkedIn Lead Gen Forms to GoHighLevel

Now you will connect each LinkedIn Lead Gen Form to GoHighLevel so that new submissions create contacts and data fields correctly.

  1. In the LinkedIn integration area, look for a list of available Lead Gen Forms.
  2. Select the form you want to sync with GoHighLevel.
  3. Map each LinkedIn form field to the appropriate GoHighLevel contact field, such as:
  • First Name → First Name
  • Last Name → Last Name
  • Email Address → Email
  • Phone Number → Phone
  • Company Name → Company
  1. Save or confirm the field mappings.

Repeat this mapping process for any additional LinkedIn Lead Gen Forms you want to sync to GoHighLevel.

Step 5: Configure Lead Handling in GoHighLevel

After mapping your forms, configure how new LinkedIn leads are handled inside GoHighLevel.

  1. Choose the pipeline or status for new leads, if available.
  2. Optionally, assign new LinkedIn leads to a specific user or team inside GoHighLevel.
  3. Decide whether to add new contacts to particular tags or segments for easier filtering.

This setup helps keep LinkedIn leads organized as they flow into your CRM.

Testing Your GoHighLevel LinkedIn Integration

Before relying on the integration for live campaigns, test that data is syncing correctly from LinkedIn to GoHighLevel.

Step 6: Submit a Test LinkedIn Lead

  1. Go to LinkedIn Campaign Manager.
  2. Locate the campaign that uses your mapped Lead Gen Form.
  3. Use LinkedIn’s Preview or Test feature to submit a sample lead, if available.
  4. Alternatively, run a small test campaign and fill out the lead form yourself.

Wait a few minutes for the data to sync to GoHighLevel.

Step 7: Verify the Lead in GoHighLevel

  1. Return to your GoHighLevel account.
  2. Navigate to the Contacts section.
  3. Search for the email address or name you used in the test lead.
  4. Open the contact record and confirm that the mapped fields were populated correctly.

If the contact appears as expected, your LinkedIn to GoHighLevel connection is working properly.

Using GoHighLevel Automations with LinkedIn Leads

Once the integration is live, you can use GoHighLevel automations to nurture and convert new LinkedIn leads.

  • Trigger workflows when a new contact from LinkedIn is created
  • Send welcome emails or SMS messages to new leads
  • Notify sales reps about high-intent leads arriving from LinkedIn
  • Assign tasks or follow-up sequences based on lead form responses

By combining LinkedIn Lead Ads with GoHighLevel automations, you can create a consistent, fast response system for every prospect.

Troubleshooting the GoHighLevel LinkedIn Lead Ads Integration

If leads are not appearing in GoHighLevel, review the following common issues:

  • Permissions: Confirm that your LinkedIn user has admin or lead access to the Page and ad account.
  • Form Mapping: Check that the correct Lead Gen Form is mapped in GoHighLevel.
  • Field Issues: Make sure all required LinkedIn fields are mapped to valid GoHighLevel fields.
  • Authorization: If the connection was revoked in LinkedIn, reconnect the integration from GoHighLevel.
