LinkedIn Service Search Export

TexAu’s LinkedIn Service Search Export automation enables you to efficiently gather LinkedIn profile data based on specific services, eliminating manual data collection. This guide will walk you through each setup step, allowing you to streamline the export of LinkedIn Service Search data directly into formats like Google Sheets or CSV files for seamless use.

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

Log in to your TexAu account at TexAu. Go to the Automation Store and locate the LinkedIn Service Search Export automation. Use the search bar to find it quickly.
​

Step 2: Connect to LinkedIn with TexAu

Click on Add Account and select LinkedIn. Choose one of the following connection methods:

• Magic Link sends a secure link to your email, making it simple to connect your account.
• Add Account option connects using TexAu’s built-in browser extension.

Tip: This step eliminates manual cookie entry, ensuring a seamless connection setup.
​

Step 3: Select Your Input Source

After linking your LinkedIn account, select your input source for the Service Search. You can choose from:

• Keyword or LinkedIn Service Search URL for single input,
• Google Sheet URL or CSV file containing multiple keywords or URLs.

For example, if you want profiles related to marketing services, enter keywords like Marketing Consultant or Social Media Expert, and apply LinkedIn filters such as location, current company, followers of, and industry to narrow your results. Copy the search URL or include it in your Google Sheet or CSV file for TexAu to automate.

Tip: LinkedIn has an approximate limit of 1,000 profiles per search URL. For broader searches, break down your criteria into smaller segments to stay within this limit.

​

Step 4: Schedule the Automation (Optional)

To schedule the automation to run at a specific time, click Schedule and set the desired start time. Scheduling is ideal for running exports during low-activity hours. Options for Recurrence Frequency include:

• Once,
• Every Day,
• Specific Days of the Week (e.g., Mondays and Wednesdays),
• Regular Intervals (e.g., every 4 hours).

​

Step 5: Set an Iteration Delay (Optional)

Setting an Iteration Delay helps you avoid LinkedIn’s activity detection. Control the frequency at which TexAu extracts each profile by setting a Minimum Delay and Maximum Delay. Choose the time unit as seconds, minutes, or hours based on your needs.
​

Step 6: Choose Your Output Mode (Optional)

In Output Mode, select the data export format: Google Sheet or CSV file. This allows you to easily share or analyze the data from your automation.

Output Options:

• Append (Default): Adds new results to the existing file.
• Split: Saves results in a new file for each extraction.
• Overwrite: Replaces previous data with the latest extraction, ideal for tracking changes.

Duplicate Management: Use Deduplicate (default) to automatically remove duplicates.
Tip: Google Sheets is ideal for direct export if you want to integrate with other workflows easily.
​

Step 7: Run the Automation on Cloud or Desktop

Once you’ve configured the settings, click Run. Choose to run the automation on Cloud if you want TexAu’s servers to handle it or on Desktop if you need more control and want to use your local IP address.
Tip: Running on Desktop helps simulate local activity and reduce cloud run-time costs.
​

Step 8: Access the Data in the Data Store

Once the automation completes, go to Data Store in TexAu. Find your LinkedIn Service Search Export and click See Data to view and download your results.
​

By following these steps, you can use TexAu’s LinkedIn Service Search Export automation to gather and organize LinkedIn data with ease. The automation’s flexibility to export to both Cloud and Desktop, along with seamless Google Sheets integration, makes it a valuable tool for growth hackers, marketers, and sales teams. TexAu allows you to focus on strategy, while it handles the heavy lifting of data collection.
