LinkedIn Product Search Export

TexAu's LinkedIn Product Search Export automation allows you to quickly gather LinkedIn product data without manual effort. By connecting your LinkedIn account and customizing the automation settings, you can schedule and run the export on cloud or desktop for full flexibility. This guide will walk you through each step to ensure a smooth and seamless automation setup.

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

Start by logging into your TexAu account at TexAu. Once logged in, navigate to the Automation Store located in the main menu. In the search bar, type “LinkedIn Product Search Export” to locate the automation. Click on the automation name to open its settings page.

Step 2: Connect to LinkedIn with TexAu

Before running the automation, you’ll need to connect your LinkedIn account to TexAu. In the automation setup screen, click “Add Account” and select LinkedIn from the list of available platforms. You can connect your LinkedIn account in two ways:

• 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 button: If you prefer, you can also use TexAu’s pre-installed browser extension to link your LinkedIn profile directly.

Tip: Using Share via Magic Link is a quick and easy way to connect without needing to manually enter cookies.

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 products for the LinkedIn Product Search Export automation. TexAu provides multiple 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 extract data from a specific LinkedIn product search. This is ideal for targeted product search data collection.

• Product Search URL: Enter the LinkedIn product search URL or relevant keyword for the search (e.g., "Cybersecurity").
• Extract Limit (Optional): Specify the maximum number of products to extract per search (up to 1,000).
• After entering the product search URL and setting the extraction limit, click Run in the lower-right corner to initiate the automation.

Google Sheets

This option is ideal for exporting product details from multiple LinkedIn searches efficiently. Follow these steps:

1. Connect Your Google Account:
   • Click Select Google Account to choose your account.
   • If not connected, click Add New Google Sheet Account to link another account.
2. Select Your Spreadsheet:
   • Click Open Google Drive to locate the Google Sheet containing LinkedIn product search URLs or keywords.
   • Select the spreadsheet and the specific sheet where the URLs or keywords are stored.
3. Adjust Processing Options:
   • Number of Rows to Process (Optional): Define the number of rows you want to scrape from the sheet.
   • Number of Rows to Skip (Optional): Specify rows to skip at the beginning of the sheet.
4. Provide Input Details:
   • Product Search URL: Ensure the column contains LinkedIn product search URLs or relevant keywords for the search.
   • Extract Limit (Optional): Specify the maximum number of products to extract per search (up to 1,000).
5. Run the Automation:
   • Click Run in the lower-right corner to initiate the process.

Optional Advanced Feature:

• Loop Mode: Enable Loop Mode to reprocess the Google Sheet from the start once all rows are completed. This is useful for recurring data updates.

CSV File

This option allows you to process LinkedIn product search URLs or keywords from a static file. Follow these steps:

1. Upload the File:
   • Click Upload CSV File and select the file containing LinkedIn product search URLs or keywords.
   • TexAu will display the file name and preview its content for verification.
2. Adjust Processing Settings:
   • Number of Rows to Process (Optional): Define the number of rows you want to scrape from the file.
   • Number of Rows to Skip (Optional): Specify rows to skip if needed.
3. Provide Input Details:
   • Product Search URL: Ensure the correct column contains LinkedIn product search URLs or relevant keywords.
   • Extract Limit (Optional): Specify the maximum number of products to extract per search (up to 1,000).
4. Run the Automation:
   • Click Run in the lower-right corner to start the process.

Tip: Use Google Sheets for dynamic or frequently updated search inputs, and CSV files for static data that doesn’t change often.

Tip: LinkedIn has a “Product Search Limit” of up to 1,000 profiles per URL. If you receive more results than this, consider adjusting your filters to reduce each URL’s profile count.

Step 5: Schedule the Automation (Optional)

If you’d like to run the automation at a specific date and time or set it to repeat periodically, go to the Schedule section. Click Schedule, then set the desired start time. From here, you can choose from several scheduling options, including:

• None
• At Regular Intervals (e.g., every hour, every 4 hours)
• Once
• Every Day
• Specific Days of the Week (e.g., every Monday)
• Specific Days of the Month
• Specific Dates for one-time exports on specific days.

You can also adjust the start and end times of each run if you need the automation to execute within certain hours.

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 your preferred format for exporting data: Google Sheet or CSV file. If you select Google Sheets, TexAu will automatically send the results to a connected Google account.

• Append (Default): New data is added to the end of the previous results, creating one continuously updated file.
• Split: A separate file is created for each export.
• Overwrite: Each new export replaces the data from the previous export, which is helpful for monitoring changes in product search results.

To keep your data organized, enable deduplication to automatically remove duplicates from the exported data.

Tip: Google Sheets is convenient for real-time access and sharing across teams.

Step 8: Access the Data from the Data Store

After the automation completes, go to Data Store in your TexAu account. Locate your LinkedIn Product Search Export entry and click “See Data” to view the extracted results.

By following these steps, you can use TexAu to automate LinkedIn product data exports efficiently. This automation is a powerful tool for founders, sales managers, and marketers, allowing you to focus on using the data instead of gathering it manually. With options for Google Sheet exports, desktop/cloud flexibility, and easy account integration, TexAu is an ideal solution for seamless LinkedIn data collection.
