He was created by Pope Alexander VIII on 13 November 1690 with the dispensation of having a cousin (Rinaldo d'Este, who later left his ecclesiastic career to marry) and uncle (Carlo Barberini) in the Sacred College and for not having yet received the minor orders. He was ordained deacon only in 1700 and priest in 1715. He participated in the five papal conclaves (1691, 1700, 1721, 1724 and 1730). Abbot of Farfa and Subiaco from 1704. He was Cardinal-Bishop of Palestrina (March 3, 1721 until July 1, 1726) and Cardinal-Bishop of Ostia e Velletri (July 1, 1726). He became dean of the Sacred College of Cardinals in December 1734.
