Follow this guide to configure the automation, with options to export data to Google Sheets or CSV for easy tracking.

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

Log in to your TexAu account at v2-prod.texau.com. In the Automation Store, use the search bar to find LinkedIn Job Search Export quickly.

Screenshot Suggestion: Show the Automation Store screen with "LinkedIn Job Search Export" entered in the search bar.

Step 2: Connect to LinkedIn with TexAu

To enable TexAu to access LinkedIn job listings on your behalf, connect your LinkedIn account. Click Add Account and select LinkedIn. TexAu offers two secure connection options:

• 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: Connects directly through TexAu’s built-in browser extension, making setup simple.

Tip: Share via Magic Link is a quick, secure way to connect LinkedIn without manual cookie management.

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: Set Up Your Job Search Criteria

TexAu provides multiple options to specify LinkedIn job searches for the LinkedIn Job Search Export Automation, catering to the needs of recruiters, job seekers, marketers, and growth hackers. Follow the steps below to choose the input source that best suits your requirements.

Manually Enter a Single Input

Use this option to extract job details from a specific LinkedIn Job Search. Follow these steps:

• LinkedIn Job Search URL: Enter the LinkedIn Job Search URL directly into the input field (e.g., https://www.linkedin.com/jobs/search/?currentJobId=12345). This is mandatory to process a single job search.
• Keyword (Optional): Add relevant job-related keywords to refine the search.
• Extract Limit (Optional): Set the maximum number of job posts to extract (up to 1,000 per search).

Once you’ve entered the details, click Run in the lower-right corner to start the automation.

Use Google Sheets for Bulk Input

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

• Click Select Google Account to choose your account. If not connected, click Add New Google Sheet Account to link another account.
• Click Open Google Drive to locate the Google Sheet containing LinkedIn Job Search URLs.
• Select the spreadsheet and the specific sheet where the URLs are stored.

Adjust Processing Options:

• Number of Rows to Process (Optional): Define how many 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:

• LinkedIn Job Search URL: Specify the column containing LinkedIn Job Search URLs.
• Keyword (Optional): Add relevant job-related keywords to refine the search.
• Extract Limit (Optional): Set the maximum number of job posts to extract (up to 1,000 per search).

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.

Process a CSV File

This option allows you to extract job data from a static CSV file. Follow these steps:

• Click Upload CSV File and select the file containing LinkedIn Job Search URLs from your computer.
• TexAu will display the file name and preview its content for verification.

Adjust Processing Settings:

• Number of Rows to Process (Optional): Define how many rows you want to process from the file.
• Number of Rows to Skip (Optional): Specify rows to skip if needed.

Provide Input Details:

• LinkedIn Job Search URL: Ensure the correct column contains LinkedIn Job Search URLs.
• Keyword (Optional): Add relevant job-related keywords to refine the search.
• Extract Limit (Optional): Set the maximum number of job posts to extract (up to 1,000 per search).

Click Run in the lower-right corner to start the process.

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

Step 5: Schedule the Automation (Optional)

To monitor job listings at regular intervals, use TexAu’s scheduling feature. Click Schedule to set the start date and time, or configure a Recurrence Frequency to update the search periodically:

• At Regular Intervals (e.g., every day or every week)
• Once
• Every Day
• On Specific Days of the Week (e.g., every Monday and Friday)
• On Specific Days of the Month (e.g., the 1st and 15th)
• On Specific Dates (e.g., March 1)

Scheduling is ideal if you want to continuously track new job postings.

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 manage the extracted alumni data. 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.

Tip: Google Sheets export makes it easy to collaborate with your team in real time, particularly useful for alumni network management and analysis.

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. Find the LinkedIn Alumni Search Export automation or the name you’ve entered, click See Data, then choose either Download CSV to export the data or Open to Google Sheet for quick access.

The LinkedIn Job Search Export automation simplifies tracking job listings based on specific criteria, making it a valuable tool for job seekers, recruiters, and market researchers. With scheduling, flexible input options, and export to Google Sheets or CSV, this tool provides organized access to job data for ongoing analysis and opportunity tracking.
