LinkedIn has recently updated its security requirements (April 2025), so if you or your clients have a LinkedIn Sales Navigator subscription, activating two-factor authentication (2FA) is now mandatory to maintain full access to Sales Navigator features.


This change does not affect your Outreachly subscription status; however, setting up two-factor authentication (2FA) is required to prevent future service interruptions.

Action Required:

Please ensure that you complete the following steps:

  1. Sign in to your LinkedIn account at LinkedIn.com.

  2. Select the profile icon at the top right and select "Settings & Privacy".

  3. In the left-hand menu, choose "Sign-in & security".

  4. Select "Two-step verification" and select "Set Up".


  5. You can select your preferred verification method, such as using a mobile app or entering a phone number.

  6. Follow the prompts to complete the setup:

    • Re-enter your LinkedIn password.

    • You can enter the verification code sent to your chosen method.

Important to Know:

  • After 2FA is enabled, users may occasionally be asked to enter a verification code inside your Outreachly workspace.

  • A system notification will alert users when two-factor authentication (2FA) verification is required, ensuring minimal disruption.

Why This Matters:

At Outreachly, we support these enhancements to strengthen security and ensure continued, seamless access to essential sales tools, such as LinkedIn Sales Navigator.


Setting up two-factor authentication (2FA) is a simple yet crucial step to protect account security and optimize campaign performance.
