LinkedIn may limit or restrict activity based on factors it does not publish. These guidelines can reduce avoidable risk, but they do not guarantee that an account will remain unrestricted.

​
Activity Patterns

High-volume, repetitive, or overlapping activity can lead to warnings, verification challenges, temporary limits, or other account restrictions. Use these precautions:
  • Keep FirstTouch limits conservative and appropriate for the sender’s account history.
  • Increase activity gradually instead of making sudden volume changes.
  • Avoid running multiple automation tools against the same account.
  • Separate manual account use from scheduled automation where practical.
  • Pause sending when LinkedIn displays a warning or requests verification.
LinkedIn does not publish universal daily limits that guarantee safe operation. Limits can change, and different accounts may be treated differently.

​
Browser And Account Access

Extensions and connected applications can access or modify LinkedIn in different ways. Review browser extensions, active sessions, and connected applications regularly. Remove access for tools you no longer use, and do not assume that signing out of one browser revokes third-party access.

​
Targeting And Message Quality

Account health depends on more than action volume. Poor targeting, repetitive messages, and negative recipient feedback can also reduce outreach effectiveness and may contribute to platform enforcement. For each campaign:
  • target people with a relevant reason to hear from you
  • personalize messages rather than sending identical copy at scale
  • make the sender and purpose clear
  • honor opt-out requests and exclusions
  • monitor replies, invitation acceptance, and negative feedback
  • pause or revise outreach when quality declines

​
Responding To A Warning

If LinkedIn warns, limits, or challenges an account:
  1. Pause FirstTouch social actions for that sender.
  2. Pause other tools connected to the account.
  3. Follow LinkedIn’s on-screen recovery or verification instructions.
  4. Review recent activity, limits, extensions, sessions, and connected applications.
  5. Resume only after the account is available and the underlying issue has been addressed.
Do not attempt to work around a platform restriction by switching tools or accounts.

Platform Policies

Customers are responsible for using FirstTouch in accordance with LinkedIn’s current User Agreement, Professional Community Policies, and applicable laws. Before launching outreach, complete the Safety Checklist.
