# LinkedIn Ads: Permissions troubleshooting guide

Your LinkedIn Ads role decides which data Supermetrics can pull for you. If your role doesn’t match what you’re trying to do, you may see one of these messages:

- `Member does not have author access to view UserGeneratedContent`
- `Access to the content is restricted to the company admins. `

This happens because, while most LinkedIn Ads metrics only require a LinkedIn Ads account for access, most Creative-level metrics require the account to have a **Super Admin** role.
