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

Define the input source to specify LinkedIn profile URLs for the LinkedIn Connection Remover automation. Here's how to configure each:

Manually Enter a Single Input

This option allows you to remove a specific LinkedIn connection. Follow these steps:

• LinkedIn Profile URL: Enter the LinkedIn profile URL of the connection you want to remove.
• This is ideal for targeted removal of a single connection.
• Click run in the lower-right corner to initiate the automation.

Use Google Sheets for Bulk Input

This option is perfect for removing multiple LinkedIn connections efficiently. Follow these steps:

• Click select Google account to choose your Google account or click add new Google Sheet account (you can add multiple Google accounts).
• Click accounts to select LinkedIn as the platform.
• Click open Google Drive to locate the Google Sheet containing LinkedIn profile URLs.
• Select the spreadsheet and the specific sheet (e.g., "Sheet1") containing the LinkedIn profile URLs.
• LinkedIn Profile URL: Choose the column header containing the LinkedIn profile URLs. This step is mandatory for the automation to function correctly.
• Configure additional options:
  • Number of Rows to Process (Optional): Define the number of rows to process from the sheet.
  • Number of Rows to Skip (Optional): Specify rows to skip at the beginning of the sheet to ensure proper data management.
• Click run in the lower-right corner to start the automation if no advanced settings are needed.

Process a CSV File

This option allows you to remove multiple LinkedIn connections using a static file. Follow these steps:

• Click upload CSV file and browse to locate the file containing LinkedIn profile URLs.
• Once uploaded, TexAu will display the file name and preview its content. Verify the data to confirm the correct file is selected.
• LinkedIn Profile URL: Choose the column header containing the LinkedIn profile URLs.
• Configure additional options:
  • Number of Rows to Process (Optional): Specify the number of rows to process from the CSV file.
  • Number of Rows to Skip (Optional): Define rows to skip at the beginning of the file.
• Click run in the lower-right corner to initiate the automation if advanced configurations like scheduling are not required.

Loop Mode

Enable loop mode to re-process the Google Sheet from the beginning once all rows are completed. This is useful for recurring removal of newly identified connections.

Step 5: Schedule the Automation (Optional)

If you want to run the automation at specific times, use the Schedule feature. Set the date and time for execution or choose a recurring schedule:

• None
• At Regular Intervals (e.g., every 8 hours or daily)
• Once
• Every Day
• On Specific Days of the Week (e.g., every Monday)
• On Specific Days of the Month (e.g., the 1st and 15th)
• On Specific Dates (e.g., January 10)

Tip: Scheduling is useful for regular network cleanups.

Step 6: Set an Iteration Delay (Optional)

Avoid detection and simulate human-like activity by setting an iteration delay. Choose minimum and maximum time intervals to add randomness between actions. This makes your activity look natural and reduces the chance of being flagged.

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

Tip: Random delays keep your automation safe and reliable.

Step 7: Choose Your Output Mode (Optional)

In Output Mode, decide how to save and manage the automation’s results.

1. Export Options: Select Google Sheets or CSV file as your output format. If using Google Sheets, link your Google account for direct export.
2. Output Management:
   • Append: Add data to the end of the existing file.
   • Split: Create a new file for each automation run.
   • Overwrite: Replace the previous file with the latest results.
3. Duplicate Management: Enable Deduplicate to remove duplicate entries automatically.

Tip: Exporting to Google Sheets allows for easy collaboration and real-time updates.

Step 8: Access the Data from the Data Store

Once the automation is complete, access the results from the Data Store in your TexAu account.

• Locate the "LinkedIn Connection Remover" automation and click See Data to view or download the processed connection removal records.
