While configuring your LinkedIn Organic connection, you may encounter several issues. Understanding these common errors can help streamline the setup process and facilitate quick resolutions.
Despite the name, the metric “engagements” in Share Statistics, Share Lifetime, Share Lifetime Incremental reports shows an Engagement rate, which is defined as the “Number of organic clicks, likes, comments, and shares over impressions".
To get the number of engagements, you need to calculate it using any of the following formulas:
```engagements * impressions```
```clicks+likes+comments+shares```
The Share Statistics report may show fewer shares compared to what you see directly in the LinkedIn UI.
This is because the report uses the ```shareCount``` (API field for ```shares```) to retrieve daily data.
Solution: Use the Share Lifetime report when you need to account for instant reposts. Learn more here.
Due to LinkedIn’s policies, only the last 12 months of share data can be accessed.
