How do I connect my LinkedIn account?

To resolve this situation, you need to enter your LinkedIn identifier in the field and click the "Connect account" button.

LinkedIn identifier is your unique account name on LinkedIn. The easiest way to find it out is to go to your LinkedIn profile page by clicking on the "Me" menu item, then on your name at the top of the menu that will show up.

Once you are on your profile page, copy the URL from your browser (right-click then Copy, or Ctrl+C, or Cmd+C).

Your account should now be connected.
