- 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: Define Your Job Search Criteria
Define the input source to specify LinkedIn job URLs for the LinkedIn Job Auto Save automation. Here's how to configure each:
Manually Enter a Single Input
Use this option to process a single LinkedIn job. Follow these steps:
- Job URL: Enter the LinkedIn Job Post URL into the input field.
- Click Run in the lower-right corner to initiate the automation.
Use Google Sheets for Bulk Input
This option is ideal for processing multiple LinkedIn job URLs at scale. Follow these steps:
- Click Select Google Account to choose your Google account or click Add New Google Sheet Account to connect another account.
- Click Accounts to select LinkedIn as the platform.
- Click Open Google Drive to locate the Google Sheet containing LinkedIn job URLs.
- Select the spreadsheet and the specific sheet containing the LinkedIn job URLs.
- Job URL: Choose the column header containing LinkedIn job 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 the rows to skip at the beginning of the sheet.
- Loop Mode (Optional): Enable this to re-process the Google Sheet from the beginning once all rows have been processed. This is helpful for recurring tasks or when new job URLs are added frequently.
Click Run in the lower-right corner to start the automation.
Process a CSV File
Use this option to process LinkedIn job URLs from a static file. Follow these steps:
- Click Upload CSV File to browse and locate the file containing LinkedIn job URLs.
- Once uploaded, TexAu will display the file name and preview its content. Verify the data to confirm the correct file is selected.
- Job URL: Choose the column header containing LinkedIn job URLs. This step is mandatory for the automation to function properly.
Configure additional options:
- Number of Rows to Process (Optional): Specify how many rows to process from the CSV file.
- Number of Rows to Skip (Optional): Define the rows to skip at the beginning of the file.
Click Run in the lower-right corner to initiate the automation.
Tip: Use Google Sheets for dynamically updating lists of LinkedIn job URLs and CSV files for static lists that do not change frequently.
Screenshot Suggestion: Show the Input Source selection screen, highlighting the CSV upload option, file preview, rows to process/skip fields, the Job URL selection, and the Loop Mode option.
Step 5: Schedule the Automation (Optional)
To automate job saving at regular intervals, configure the Schedule settings. Click Schedule to set the start date and time, or configure a Recurrence Frequency to run the automation periodically:
- At Regular Intervals (e.g., every day or every 6 hours)
- 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 if you want to continuously save new job listings that match your criteria.
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)
Choose how to save and organize the scraped job data:
- Append (Default): Adds new results to the end of the existing file, keeping all previously collected data in a single file for continuous tracking.
- Split: Saves each run's results in a separate file, useful for organizing data by date or specific runs.
- Overwrite: Replaces old data with the latest results, ideal for monitoring changes in job postings or keeping the file updated with only the most recent data.
- Duplicate Management: Enable Deduplicate (Default) to remove duplicate rows automatically, ensuring clean, accurate, and well-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. Locate the "LinkedIn Job Auto Save" automation or the name you’ve assigned, click See Data, and choose Download CSV to export the data or Open to Google Sheet for quick access.
