A LinkedIn account shows as signed out

Why a connected LinkedIn account can become signed out, how to check it with Recheck, and how to sign it in again.

Updated

Quick answer

LinkedIn sometimes ends a session, for example after a password change or a security review. Click Recheck on the profile to confirm its status; if it's signed out, click Sign in (or reconnect it with the extension) and enter any code LinkedIn sends. Its tasks carry on afterwards.

Why it happens

  • The LinkedIn password was changed.
  • The owner signed out of all sessions on LinkedIn.
  • LinkedIn reviewed the account and asked for verification.
  • The session expired after a long time unused.

Check and fix

  1. Open Profiles and click Recheck on the account. It takes up to a minute and confirms whether the session is still signed in, waiting through LinkedIn's in-between pages.
  2. If it's signed out, click Sign in and enter the LinkedIn password, or reconnect with the browser extension.
  3. Enter any code or approval LinkedIn asks for: see sign-in codes.

You get a notification whenever an account needs you, so nothing waits unnoticed.

Frequently asked questions

Will I lose my campaigns?

No. Campaigns, leads and settings stay; tasks for that account wait until it's signed in.

Why does LinkedIn keep signing an account out?

Frequent sign-outs usually mean LinkedIn sees unusual activity. Lower the account's limits and pace for a while, and see using automation safely.
