Connect your Ad Accounts

When you link your Google Ads or LinkedIn Ads account, Qualified can automatically-track clickthroughs on certain ad types.

Qualified uses an OAuth connection with your ad platform. To connect:

1. As a Qualified Admin, log into your Qualified account in a browser (not our desktop app).
2. Go to Settings → App Settings → Advertising.
3. On the Google Ads or LinkedIn Ads card, click Connect.
4. Enter your login credentials and click Sign In.
5. Click Allow to grant Qualified permissions.

Once your Google Ads or LinkedIn Ads account is connected:

1. Click Edit ad accounts.
2. Select which specific ad account Qualified should track from the drop-down menu.
3. (Optional) Click the + icon to choose additional ad accounts.
4. Click Save.

Supported Ad Types

In Google Ads, we automatically track these ad types:

• Expanded Text Ads
• Responsive Display Ads
• Responsive Search Ads
  

In LinkedIn Ads, these ad types are automatically tracked:

• Single Image Ads

If you want to track an unsupported ad type or Facebook advertisements, Qualified can still surface when a clickthrough happens. However, it will not display the ad’s visual. Learn more about manually tracking ads here.
