This LinkedIn automation will mass search LinkedIn companies for you. Simply input a company name, for instance, “Microsoft”, and it will look for the most likely LinkedIn page URL for said company. In this case: https://www.linkedin.com/company/microsoft/
This automation is useful for marketers who find themselves with a list of target companies from a trade show, online index, or any source with limited information, and want to turn it into actionable leads.
Once you have your list of companies, scrape detailed data about each one using our LinkedIn Company Scraper.
How to find LinkedIn company pages when you just know their names?
TexAu makes it very easy to find 1 (or 1000s) of LinkedIn company pages:
- Create a free TexAu account here.
- Make a list of companies in a Google Sheet to feed to TexAu.
- And run the automation right away (or schedule it to run later).
That’s it! TexAu will do the boring searches for you and deliver all the company URLs it found in a .CSV spreadsheet.

FAQ
How do I add a new profile?
To connect your LinkedIn profile and perform this automation, you must:
