# Creating connection

Setting up Linked API in Make requires two steps: **getting your API tokens** and **creating a connection**. This guide walks you through both steps.

## Getting your tokens

1. Sign up at [Linked API Platform](https://app.linkedapi.io/).
2. Choose your plan and start your 7-day free trial.
3. Connect your LinkedIn account (it takes about 2 minutes).
4. Copy your tokens from the dashboard (as shown below):

4. Click "Save". Your connection is now ready to use.

## Multiple LinkedIn accounts

If you manage multiple LinkedIn accounts, create a separate connection for each one. Every account has its own **Identification Token**, while the **Linked API Token** remains the same. You can then switch between accounts by selecting different connections.
