We calculate the coherent and incoherent production of $J/\psi$ in PbPb ultraperipheral collisions. The production of $J/\psi$ in ultraperipheral collsions is product of photon flux distributions and cross section of photon-nucleus scatterings. The distributions of photon flux is computed in light-cone perturbation theory and the cross section of photon-nucleus scatterings is calculated in dipole model, we assume that the two gluons exchange contribution is the coherent cross section and the large-$N_c$ contribution is the incoherent cross section in photon-nucleus scattering. The numerical result of the rapidity distributions of $J/\psi$ production in PbPb ultraperipheral collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}=2.76$TeV are compared with the experimental data measured by the ALICE collaboration.
