    Default LinkedIn connector Field Mapping

    Hi, I mapped successfully Leads, Accounts and Prospects to the Account Name. But at the Contact and Opportunities I don't have this field in the selection drop down box. The fields are available in the forms. What do I have to do in order to select Account Name as well for Contacts and Opportunities? Thanks a lot!

    Default Re: LinkedIn connector Field Mapping

    I ran into the same issue running 5..2.0j community.

    The LI API only works with the field account_name and this field is not available in the contacts settings for the connector field mapping.

    After looking at the module editor tool I found that account_name is not a field in the contacts module, but is listed in the labels list. I took a lok at the connector source code and it appears that the drop down is populated using available fields in the module. Since account_name is not a field in the contacts module it is not available in the drop down in the connector field mapping tool.

    The end result of this is;
    when the user converts a lead to a contact, the linked in connector module becomes inoperative for the contact.
    I think that a bug is appropriate here.
