The Mandatory Pre-Zapier Step That Makes or Breaks LinkedIn-HubSpot Integrations

TABLE OF CONTENTS
A common oversight we discovered during a client consultation today explains why many LinkedIn-HubSpot integrations fail: attempting to build the Zapier connection before establishing the proper foundation in LinkedIn Campaign Manager.
Before creating any Zap, you must first:
- Create the conversion event in LinkedIn Campaign Manager
- Specifically select "Conversions API" as the tracking method
- Choose "Zapier" as the source platform
- Only then build your Zapier workflow
Our client had meticulously constructed their Zap between HubSpot and LinkedIn, yet their forms remained stubbornly "unverified." They had inadvertently reversed the implementation sequence, trying to build the integration without first establishing the conversion foundation in LinkedIn.
Once we corrected this sequence issue, their previously non-functional integration instantly validated.
This crucial prerequisite step isn't prominently featured in most Zapier tutorials but proves essential for successful LinkedIn conversion tracking implementations.
