Why Campaign Emails Pause When You Hit LinkedIn Quota (and What to Do About It)

You launch a multi-channel campaign — email, LinkedIn, follow-ups — and everything is humming along… until suddenly, emails stop sending.

You check your campaign dashboard, and there are no errors showing. What gives?

The culprit might not be email at all — it could be LinkedIn quota limits putting the brakes on your workflow.

When your campaign includes LinkedIn connection requests, they count toward LinkedIn’s weekly connection request quota.

If that quota is reached, LinkedIn blocks new requests until it resets — and in many platforms, that pause can temporarily hold up campaign emails as well (to keep steps aligned and in order).

Follow these steps to troubleshoot and get your campaign back on track:

Open your LinkedIn account and check how many connection requests you’ve sent recently.
LinkedIn enforces a weekly limit, which varies by account and activity history.

LinkedIn resets this limit after a fixed period (usually weekly).
Once reset, your campaign emails will automatically resume — no extra clicks or restarts needed.

Log back into your campaign dashboard and watch for new sends once the quota refreshes.
Check your campaign logs to ensure no other errors are blocking delivery.

If you hit this limit often, consider:

If your campaign still doesn’t resume sending after the quota resets, contact support and include a link to the affected campaign. They can investigate whether something else is blocking sends.
