Extract Connected Accounts Profile URL

The Extract Connected Accounts Profile URL automation allows you to retrieve the public LinkedIn profile URLs of all your connected accounts in TexAu. Ideal for scraping or exporting LinkedIn connected accounts to TexAu for teams and enterprises, this tool helps streamline data extraction with flexible scheduling, manual LinkedIn account selection, and export options to Google Sheets or CSV. For teams and enterprises managing large numbers of connected accounts, this automation simplifies account management and ensures efficient handling of data.

Step 1: Log in to the TexAu App and Locate the Automation

Log in to your TexAu account at v2-prod.texau.com. Navigate to the Automation Store and enter Extract Connected Accounts Profile URL in the search bar to find the tool.

Step 2: Connect to LinkedIn with TexAu

To extract profile URLs, connect your LinkedIn account to TexAu. Click Accounts to select LinkedIn as the platform and authorize your account using one of these methods:

• Share Via Magic Link: Click Share Via Magic Link, copy the URL, and paste it into your browser to access the Connect New Account page. Install the extension to complete account integration.
• Add Account: Helps you easily sync cookies and other information from your browser to the TexAu platform.

Step 3: Choose Cloud or Desktop Automation

Select your preferred execution mode for the automation:

• Cloud: Automate tasks on TexAu’s servers using built-in proxies. Add a custom proxy anytime via Settings > Preferences > Proxies.
• Desktop: Run the automation on your local device using your IP address to simulate manual posting.
  Tip: Running the automation in Desktop mode saves cloud runtime credits and provides more control over execution.

Step 4: Select Your Input Source

For this automation, manually select the LinkedIn accounts already connected in TexAu to retrieve their public profile URLs.

Step 5: Schedule the Automation (Optional)

Set up a schedule for the automation to run at specific times or intervals. Click Schedule and choose from the following options:

• None
• At Regular Intervals (e.g., every 6 hours)
• Once
• Every Day
• On Specific Days of the Week (e.g., Mondays and Thursdays)
• On Specific Days of the Month (e.g., the 1st and 15th)
• On Specific Dates (e.g., January 10)

Scheduling helps automate regular data exports, keeping your ad analysis up-to-date.

Step 6: Set an Iteration Delay (Optional)

Set a delay between actions to simulate human-like activity. Choose a minimum and maximum delay to randomize the timing and reduce the chance of being flagged. For example, you can set a minimum delay of 10 seconds and a maximum of 20 seconds.

• Minimum Delay: Enter the shortest interval (e.g., 10 seconds).
• Maximum Delay: Enter the longest interval (e.g., 20 seconds).

Step 7: Output Mode (Optional)

Decide how to save and manage the extracted data. TexAu provides the following options:

• Append (Default): Adds new results to the end of the previous data, merging them into a single CSV file.
• Split: Saves new results as a separate CSV file after each extraction.
• Overwrite: Replaces previous data with the latest results, useful for monitoring changes over time.
• Duplicate Management: Enable Deduplicate (Default) to automatically delete duplicate rows between extractions for clean, organized data.

Step 8: Access the Data from the Data Store

After the automation completes, go to the Data Store section in TexAu to access your results. Find the Extract Connected Accounts Profile URL automation or the name you have entered, and click See Data, then select either Download CSV to export the data or Open to Google Sheet to access the data in Google Sheets.

The Extract Connected Accounts Profile URL automation is a powerful tool for teams and enterprises to efficiently scrape and manage LinkedIn connections. With seamless integration, flexible scheduling, and export options to Google Sheets or CSV, it simplifies handling large datasets while ensuring organized and actionable insights for your LinkedIn network.
