      Step 4: Select Your Input Source

      Define the input source to specify LinkedIn messages for the LinkedIn Inbox Scraper automation. TexAu provides multiple input options to suit the needs of founders, sales managers, marketers, and growth hackers. Here's how to configure each:

    Manually Enter a Single Input

    Use this option to scrape messages from a specific LinkedIn thread. Follow these steps:

    • Thread URL: Enter the LinkedIn thread URL into the input field.
    • Extract Before Date (Optional): Define a cutoff date to scrape messages before a specific date (use the format MM/DD/YYYY). If left blank, today’s date is used by default.
    • Click Run in the lower-right corner to start the automation.
    enter-a-single-input

    Use Google Sheets for Bulk Input


    This option is ideal for scraping messages from multiple LinkedIn threads. Follow these steps:

    • Click Select Google Account to choose your Google account or click Add New Google Sheet Account to link additional accounts.
    • Click Accounts to select LinkedIn as the platform.
    • Click Open Google Drive to locate the Google Sheet containing LinkedIn thread URLs.
    • Select the spreadsheet and the specific sheet containing LinkedIn thread URLs.
    • 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.
      • Extract Before Date (Optional): Define a cutoff date to scrape messages before a specific date (use the format MM/DD/YYYY). If left blank, today’s date is used by default.
    • Click Run in the lower-right corner to start the automation.

    Optional Advanced Feature:

    • Loop Mode: Enable Loop Mode to re-process the Google Sheet from the beginning once all rows are completed. This is useful for tasks that require recurring updates.

    Watch Row (Optional)

    Watch Row feature helps automate workflows by detecting new Google Sheet entries and running workflows without manual action.

    Define Watch Row settings by selecting an update frequency and an execution timeframe.

    Watch Row Schedule

    • None
    • Scheduling Intervals (e.g., every 15 minutes, every hour)
    • One-Time Execution
    • Daily Execution
    • Weekly Recurrence (e.g., every Tuesday and Friday)
    • Monthly Specific Dates (e.g., 9th and 27th)
    • Custom Fixed Dates (e.g., May 16)

    By default, Watch Row scans every 15 minutes and runs for five days unless changed.

    With Watch Row, workflows stay dynamic and data-driven.

    Process a CSV File


    This option allows you to scrape LinkedIn thread messages from a static file. Follow these steps:

    • Click Upload CSV File and browse to locate the file containing LinkedIn thread URLs.
    • Once uploaded, TexAu will display the file name and preview its content. Verify the data to confirm it is correct.
    • 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.
      • Extract Before Date (Optional): Define a cutoff date to scrape messages before a specific date (use the format MM/DD/YYYY). If left blank, today’s date is used by default.
    • Click Run in the lower-right corner to start the automation.

    Screenshot Suggestion: Show the CSV upload screen, highlighting file preview and optional configurations.

    step3

    Step 5: Schedule the Automation (Optional)

    To retrieve messages at regular intervals, use the scheduling feature. Click Schedule to set the start date and time, or configure a Recurrence Frequency to repeat the automation:

    • At Regular Intervals (e.g., every day or weekly)
    • Once
    • Every Day
    • On Specific Days of the Week (e.g., every Tuesday and Friday)
    • On Specific Days of the Month (e.g., the 5th and 20th)
    • On Specific Dates (e.g., March 1)

    Scheduling is useful for keeping your message data up to date, allowing you to monitor conversations consistently.

    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, select how you want to save and organize your inbox data. Export data to Google Sheets or CSV file for easy tracking, sharing, and analysis.

    1. Export Options: Choose Google Sheets or CSV file as your output destination. Link your Google account if you select Google Sheets, allowing for a direct export to Google Drive.
    2. Output Management:
      • Append (Default): Adds each extracted conversation to the end of the existing file, creating a comprehensive record of inbox messages.
      • Split: Each automation run generates a new file, helpful for tracking data by session.
      • Overwrite: Replaces previous data with the latest extraction, ideal if you’re only interested in recent conversations.
    3. Duplicate Management: Enable Deduplicate to automatically remove duplicate entries, ensuring data remains clean and organized.

    Step 8: Access the Data from the Data Store

    After the automation completes, go to the Data Store section in TexAu to access the extracted inbox data. Locate the LinkedIn Inbox Scraper automation and click See Data to view or download the results.

    step8
