How to request admin access to a LinkedIn Page

You need to update your company’s LinkedIn Page, but opening it only shows the public view. If you’re authorized to manage it, you can request access from your own profile. This guide helps you prepare that request, check whether it was approved, and ask for help if it stays pending.

Prepare your profile before requesting access

Sign in to your personal LinkedIn account. Pages are managed through roles assigned to profiles; you don’t need a separate Page password or access to a former employee’s account.

Before requesting access, LinkedIn tells you to list your current role at the organization in Experience, follow the Page, and verify your workplace using your company email. Keep that information accurate to your actual relationship with the organization. Use the workplace verification options available for your company.

If a current super admin can grant you access directly, follow the guide to adding LinkedIn Page admins. To send the request yourself, continue below. LinkedIn’s official admin access instructions explain the requirements.

Send the request from the Page

1. Open the organization’s Page. Check its name and URL so you choose the right one.
2. Select More, then Request admin access. LinkedIn documents this option for both desktop and mobile.
3. Check the box confirming you’re authorized to administer that Page. Requesting access gives its current super admins access to your public profile information.
4. Select Request access. If prompted to confirm your company email, complete the verification shown.

Sending the request doesn’t assign a role yet. If the Page is actively managed, its current super admins must review and approve your request.

Check whether access was assigned

Look in Notifications: LinkedIn says you’ll receive confirmation there if you’re assigned access. Then open the Page using the same profile that sent the request and check that you can reach its admin view.

If you haven’t received that confirmation, the current admins haven’t accepted your request yet. The help page gives no response deadline; a verified email doesn’t mean access activates automatically.

If your request remains pending

LinkedIn’s help page lets you contact support after submitting a request without receiving a response. Before doing so, check that the Page is listed as your current employer on your profile, and verify your work email if your company offers that verification. Support may ask for additional information.

Keep the Page URL ready and explain that you’ve already requested access. This helps describe your situation; it doesn’t mean support will approve it. LinkedIn also says support can’t provide admin information to Page members or employees.

If your problem involves two Pages for the same company, check the requirements for requesting a LinkedIn Page merge. That task requires permissions on both Pages and has consequences to consider before submitting a request.
