  2. Click the Manage Insight Tag drop-down menu on the right side of the screen and choose See tag. A new screen will appear. LinkedIn Campaign Manager Insight Tag tracking page with Manage Insight Tag dropdown open and See tag option highlighted.   
  3. Copy the Pixel code in the dialog box by clicking on the code snippet.LinkedIn "Install my Insight Tag" dialog showing the JavaScript tag code to copy and paste into a website footer.   
  4. Back in the Unbounce Builder, navigate to the page where you'd like to install and click the Javascripts JavaScript file type icon labeled "Javascripts" in a file browser or tag manager interface. button at the bottom of the page. A new dialog box will appear
  5. In the new dialog box, paste the code that you copied from LinkedIn. Enter LinkedIn Pixel in the Script Name field and select the “Before body end tag" option in the Placement drop-down menu. Once you've completed all these steps, click the Save Code button in the bottom right-hand corner of the dialog box.

Note:

You can install this script once and have it applied to all pages under the same domain. Simply install the script through Script Manager instead of installing it through page variant. This script will be placed on “Before body end tag" and be included on “All". You won’t need to install the same Pixel on your Form Confirmation Dialog again if you already have your Pixel through Script Manager.

Adding your LinkedIn Pixel as a Variant Pixel

If you have your LinkedIn Pixel as a variant* pixel instead of a domain pixel, please follow these 2 extra steps to track your conversion on your form. 

  1. Select the Form Confirmation Dialog tab in the top left corner of the builder. Form Confirmation Dialog tab selected in page editor, showing a thank you confirmation message popup.

Repeat the instructions in Steps 4 and 5. 

You're set! Your pixel will now track visits and conversions to every landing page where the pixel code exists.

*Variant Pixel:

A variant pixel is a snippet implemented on your variant instead of your domain, which means this pixel will only track traffic and conversion on a certain variant (page) instead of tracking every page on your domain. If you want to track specific pages on your domain, you would have to implement LinkedIn Pixel as a variant pixel.
