The LinkedIn Auto Like automation enables users to automatically like posts on LinkedIn, helping to boost engagement and visibility. This tool is ideal for founders, sales managers, marketers, and growth hackers who want to save time while maintaining an active presence on LinkedIn. With TexAu, you can configure the automation to run on the cloud or desktop, export results to Google Sheets or CSV, and optimize it using features like scheduling, iteration delay, and input customization.

Step 1: Log in to TexAu and Connect LinkedIn

Log in to your TexAu account at v2-prod.texau.com.

Go to Accounts and connect your LinkedIn account. You can choose one of these methods:

Step 2: Choose Cloud or Desktop Execution

Decide how you want to run the automation:

• Cloud Mode: Automates tasks on TexAu’s servers with built-in proxies. You can add custom proxies via Settings > Preferences > Proxies.
• Desktop Mode: Runs automation on your local device using your IP address.

Tip: Desktop mode saves cloud runtime credits and gives more control over the process.

Use Google Sheets for Bulk Input

This option is ideal for liking multiple LinkedIn posts efficiently. Follow these steps:

• Connect Your Google Account
  • Click Select Google Account to choose your Google account or click Add New Google Sheet Account (you can add multiple Google accounts).
• Select the Spreadsheet
  • Click Open Google Drive to locate the Google Sheet containing LinkedIn post URLs.
  • Select the spreadsheet and the specific sheet containing LinkedIn post URLs. Confirm the correct sheet selection to ensure the data is accurate.
• Adjust Processing Options
  • Number of Rows to Process (Optional): Define the number of rows you want to process from the sheet.
  • Number of Rows to Skip (Optional): Specify rows to skip at the beginning of the sheet.
• Provide Input Details
  • Post URL: Choose the column header containing LinkedIn post URLs.
  • Reaction Type: Select the reaction type (e.g., Like, Love, Celebrate, Insightful, Funny). You can also choose "Randomize" to apply random reactions to each post.
• Click Run in the lower-right corner to start the automation if no advanced settings are needed.

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 ensures automated execution of workflows by checking Google Sheets for new data entries.

Configure Watch Row by selecting a monitoring interval and setting an end date.

Watch Row Schedule

• None
• Scheduling Intervals (e.g., every 15 minutes, every hour)
• One-Time Execution
• Daily Execution
• Weekly Recurrence (e.g., every Wednesday and Sunday)
• Monthly Specific Dates (e.g., 8th and 27th)
• Custom Fixed Dates (e.g., February 19)

By default, TexAu checks every 15 minutes and continues for five days unless modified.

With Watch Row, you can ensure workflows trigger automatically when new data arrives.

1. Upload the File
   • Click Upload CSV File and browse to locate the file containing LinkedIn post URLs.
   • Once uploaded, TexAu will display the file name and preview its content. Verify the data to confirm the correct file is selected.
2. Configure Processing Settings
   • 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.
3. Provide Input Details

Step 5: Schedule the Automation (Optional)

Set a schedule to run the automation at specific times. Click Schedule to configure the timing and frequency:

• None: Run the automation immediately.
• At Regular Intervals (e.g., every 8 hours or daily)
• Once
• Every Day
• On Specific Days of the Week (e.g., every Tuesday and Thursday)
• On Specific Days of the Month (e.g., the 1st and 15th)

Tip: Scheduling automations helps maintain consistent LinkedIn engagement while saving time.

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).

Step 7: Choose Your Output Mode (Optional)

In Output Mode, select how to save and manage the automation results:

• Google Sheets: Export results directly to Google Sheets for easy tracking and sharing.
• CSV File: Save results locally for offline access and analysis.
• Output Management:
  • Append (Default): Add new results to the existing file.
  • Split: Generate a new file for each automation run.
  • Overwrite: Replace old data with the latest results.
• Duplicate Management: Enable Deduplicate to automatically clean up duplicate entries.
