LinkedIn CAPI Component for Edgee

This component implements the data collection protocol between Edgee and LinkedIn CAPI.

Quick Start

1. Download the latest component version from our releases page
2. Place the linkedin_capi.wasm file in your server (e.g., /var/edgee/components)
3. Add the following configuration to your edgee.toml:

[[components.data_collection]]
id = "linkedin_capi"
file = "/var/edgee/components/linkedin_capi.wasm"
settings.linkedin_access_token = "YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN"

Event Handling

Event Mapping

The component maps Edgee events to LinkedIn CAPI events as follows:

Edgee event	LinkedIn CAPI Event	Description
Page	NONE	LinkedIn CAPI doesn't have Page event
Track	URN of the conversion rule created through API.	Uses the provided conversion rule name directly
User	NONE	LinkedIn CAPI doesn't have User event

Here is an example of a track call:

edgee.track({
  name: "urn:lla:llaPartnerConversion:123",
});

Configuration Options

Basic Configuration

[[components.data_collection]]
id = "linkedin_capi"
file = "/var/edgee/components/linkedin_capi.wasm"
settings.linkedin_access_token = "YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN"

# Optional configurations
settings.edgee_default_consent = "pending" # Set default consent status

Event Controls

Control which events are forwarded to LinkedIn CAPI:

settings.edgee_page_event_enabled = false   # Disable page view tracking as it doesn't exist on this component
settings.edgee_track_event_enabled = true  # Enable/disable custom event tracking
settings.edgee_user_event_enabled = false   # Disable page view tracking as it doesn't exist on this component

Consent Management

Before sending events to LinkedIn CAPI, you can set the user consent using the Edgee SDK:

edgee.consent("granted");

Or using the Data Layer:

<script id="__EDGEE_DATA_LAYER__" type="application/json">
  {
    "data_collection": {
      "consent": "granted"
    }
  }
</script>

If the consent is not set, the component will use the default consent status. Important: LinkedIn CAPI requires the consent status to be set to granted. If not, the events will be ignored.

Consent	Events
pending	ignored
denied	ignored
granted	forwarded
