If you can't connect a LinkedIn Organic source in Funnel
​How to compare LinkedIn UI vs Funnel

If you are missing shares or updates in the "Update Metrics / Per Update" report
​If you have missing updates/shares

If your data isn't matching with the LinkedIn Organic feed

To access the organic analytics you have to have an administrator role (SUPER ADMIN) for the organisation.

If you're an authenticated member within the organisation with the role type SUPER ADMIN, you should have access to a tab called "Admin tools" on your organisations LinkedIn page (top right corner of the page).

If you are not, please contact your LinkedIn account administrator and ask to be given the administrator role type "SUPER ADMIN". For more information about the organisation access control read here and here.

Keep in mind, the LinkedIn UI will show the lifetime total number of statistics. The LinkedIn UI cannot break down the activity in specific timeframes.
​
​Example view from LinkedIn UI

Above you see an organic update post in the LinkedIn UI. The time range chosen here (Oct 24 - Nov 7), shows posts published during this time while the analytics (impressions, views, clicks) will show the totals from the publish date until today's date.
​
Furthermore, if the "Boost" button is greyed out, as is in the picture, the numbers won't match. This is because the statistics from a boosted post comes through the non-organic LinkedIn API during the period the post is boosted.

Double check your report type. Since video updates are not included in the "Per Update" report, you will need to connect both a Video and a Per Updates report to get the total metrics for both.

Numbers can become negative when members who liked a sponsored share later unlikes it. While the like is not counted (since it is not organic), the organic unlike is. Troubleshoot missing updates/shares by adding the IDs of the updates.

Reasons why a stat may show a negative value:

Negative share: member shares the post when they are seeing it in their feed as a sponsored post, but subsequently delete the share from their posted content.

​Negative comment: member comments on the post when they are seeing it as a sponsored post, but subsequently deletes the comment.
​
​Negative like: member likes the post when they are seeing it as a sponsored post, but subsequently unlike the post.
​
​Negative followers: member follows the company when they are viewing a sponsored post, but subsequently unfollow the company.

Data persistence for deleted Updates/Posts differs between the LinkedIn Content analytics UI and the LinkedIn API. While historical data for deleted Updates/Posts is retained in the UI, the API only provides a snapshot of live Updates/Posts at time of retrieval.

Due to this limitation, deleting an Update/Post will cause it to become irretrievable from the API, and in turn cause refreshes of its historical data in Funnel to remove any previously populated metrics.

Wait 24-48 hours and then check your data again. The counts returned from the LinkedIn API for the share statistics are eventually consistent, not immediately consistent, and can take up to 24-48 hours in some cases.

Wait 24 hours and then check your data again. Data younger than 30 days is volatile and is only refreshed every 24 hours, so if you look at numbers in LinkedIn's UI at a point where Funnel hasn't updated that data for ~23 hours, it will be a mismatch.

Wait 24-48 hours and then check your data again. In some cases, the "video likes" and "video comment" field values might not match because:
