Configuring LinkedIn integration in Pega Sales Automation (7.4-8.4)

Updated on September 10, 2021

Integrate LinkedIn Sales Navigator with Pega Sales Automation™ to help your sales representatives find new contacts with recommended leads and icebreakers, as well as connections among sales representatives and their prospects. The LinkedIn Sales Navigator widget is displayed in contacts, leads, opportunities, and organization pages in Pega Sales Automation.

Note: Connecting Pega Sales Automation to LinkedIn requires an active LinkedIn account and an application. Integration with LinkedIn works only with Team and Enterprise licenses. For detailed information about how to complete each step, see the LinkedIn developer documentation.

To integrate your Pega Sales Automation with LinkedIn Sales Navigator, perform the following steps:

  1. Register your application with LinkedIn
  2. Configure JavaScript SDK domains
  3. Enable LinkedIn Sales Navigator in Pega Sales Automation

Registering your application with LinkedIn

The Pega Sales Automation integration with LinkedIn requires an active LinkedIn account and application. For detailed information about how to complete each step, see the LinkedIn developer documentation.

  1. Create a LinkedIn account.

    You can use your existing account.

  2. Create a LinkedIn application.

    You can create more than one application.

  3. In the navigation panel of your LinkedIn application, click Authentication, and then save the Client ID and Client Secret for further configuration.
  4. In the navigation panel of your LinkedIn application, click JavaScript, and then add https://www.linkedin.com as a valid SDK domain.

    This is required to render the widget and sign-in button.

Configuring JavaScript SDK domains

To secure the integration between a LinkedIn account and your Pega Sales Automation application, configure valid SDK domains. By doing this, you ensure that other applications cannot fraudulently represent themselves as your own application by using the JavaScript SDK.

  1. In your LinkedIn application, click JavaScript.
  2. In the Valid SDK Domains section, add your JavaScript API domains and protocol.

Enabling LinkedIn Sales Navigator in Pega Sales Automation

Before your sales representatives can use LinkedIn Sales Navigator with Pega Sales Automation, enable LinkedIn Sales Navigator in your Pega Sales Automation application.

  1. In the navigation panel of App Studio, click Settings, and then click the Social media tab.
  2. On the Social media tab, in the LinkedIn integration section, perform the following steps:
    1. Enter the Organization ID that you used to create your LinkedIn application.
    2. Enter the Client ID and the Client Secret that was generated as part of the Registering your application with LinkedIn task.
    3. Click Save.
