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 managing multiple pending connection requests 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 profile URLs.

  • Select the spreadsheet and the specific sheet (e.g., Sheet5) containing the LinkedIn profile URLs.

• Provide Input Details

• LinkedIn Profile URL: Choose the column header containing the LinkedIn profile URLs. This step is mandatory for the automation to function correctly.

• Adjust Processing Options

• Number of Rows to Process (Optional): Define the number of rows to process from the sheet. You can input a specific number in the corresponding field.

  • Number of Rows to Skip (Optional): Specify rows to skip at the beginning of the sheet to ensure proper data management.

• 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 automates data processing by triggering workflows when new data is added to Google Sheets.

Configure Watch Row by selecting an update interval and execution window.

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., 11th and 29th)
• Custom Fixed Dates (e.g., December 6)

By default, Watch Row scans every 15 minutes and executes for five days unless modified.

With Watch Row, workflows operate efficiently in real-time.

Process a CSV File

This option allows you to handle pending connection requests using a static file. Follow these steps:

1. Upload the File
   • Click Upload CSV File and browse to locate the file containing LinkedIn profile URLs.
   • Once uploaded, TexAu will display the file name and preview its content. Verify the data to confirm the correct file is selected.
2. Provide Input Details
   • LinkedIn Profile URL: Choose the column header containing the LinkedIn profile URLs. This step is mandatory for the automation to function correctly.
3. Adjust Processing 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.
4. Click Run in the lower-right corner to initiate the automation if advanced configurations like scheduling are not required.

Step 5: Schedule the Automation (Optional)

Use TexAu’s scheduling feature to run the rejection process automatically at chosen times. Click Schedule and set the timing and recurrence 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 Friday).
• On Specific Days of the Month (e.g., the 1st and 15th).

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)

Choose how to save and manage data about rejected connections. TexAu provides the following options:

• Append (Default): Adds new results to the end of existing data, merging them into a single CSV file.
• Split: Saves new results as separate CSV files for each automation run.
• Overwrite: Replaces previous data with the latest results.
• Duplicate Management: Enable Deduplicate (Default) to remove duplicate rows for clean, organized data.
