Tutorial
Overview
The LinkedIn Profile Articles Export automation allows you to collect articles shared on specific LinkedIn profiles, including content details, engagement metrics, and publication dates. This tool is perfect for marketers, recruiters, and sales teams who want to track thought leadership or analyze industry-specific content trends. Follow this guide to configure the automation, with options to export data to Google Sheets or CSV for easy review and analysis.
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, search for LinkedIn Profile Articles Export to locate the tool quickly.
Step 2: Connect to LinkedIn with TexAu
To allow TexAu to access LinkedIn article data, connect your LinkedIn account. Click Add Account and select LinkedIn. TexAu offers two secure connection methods:
- Magic Link: Sends a secure link to your email, allowing you to connect without manually managing cookies.
- Add Account: Connects directly using TexAu’s built-in browser extension, streamlining the setup process.
Tip: Magic Link provides a fast, secure way to connect without needing manual cookie management.
Step 3: Select Your Input Source
Once LinkedIn is connected, define the input source to specify which profiles you want to scrape for articles. You can enter a single LinkedIn Profile URL or upload a list of URLs using Google Sheets or CSV.
- Single Profile URL: For a one-time article extraction, enter the LinkedIn Profile URL of the target profile. This is useful if you’re analyzing content from a specific individual.
- Google Sheet or CSV for Multiple Profiles: For gathering articles from multiple profiles, use a Google Sheet or CSV file. List each LinkedIn Profile URL in a separate row, then paste the Google Sheet URL or upload the CSV file in TexAu. This setup allows you to collect articles from many profiles in one run, saving time.
- Filtering Options: Use filters such as date range or minimum engagement level to narrow down the articles you want to extract, focusing on the most relevant content.
Step 4: Schedule the Automation (Optional)
To run the automation at specific intervals, configure the Schedule settings. Click Schedule to set the start date and time, or choose a Recurrence Frequency for regular updates:
- At Regular Intervals (e.g., every day or every week)
- Once
- Every Day
- On Specific Days of the Week (e.g., every Monday and Thursday)
- On Specific Days of the Month (e.g., the 5th and 20th)
- On Specific Dates (e.g., March 15)
Scheduling is ideal if you need frequent updates on articles from specific profiles, ensuring your data stays current.
Step 5: Set an Iteration Delay (Optional)
To avoid triggering LinkedIn’s rate limits, set an Iteration Delay to control the interval between each profile extraction. Configure Minimum Delay and Maximum Delay values to introduce variability, helping simulate natural activity. Adjust this delay in seconds, minutes, hours, or days, depending on your needs.
Step 6: Choose Your Output Mode (Optional)
In Output Mode, select how you want to save and organize the extracted article data. Export data to Google Sheets or CSV file for easy sharing and review.
- Export Options: Choose Google Sheets or CSV file as your output destination. Link your Google account if you select Google Sheets, enabling direct export to Google Drive.
- Output Management:
- Append (Default): Adds each extraction to the end of the existing file, creating a comprehensive list of articles.
- Split: Each run generates a new file, helpful for organizing data by session.
- Overwrite: Replaces previous data with the latest extraction, ideal if you’re only tracking recent articles.
- Duplicate Management: Enable Deduplicate to remove duplicate entries, ensuring data remains clean and organized.
Tip: Exporting to Google Sheets is helpful for collaborative analysis, allowing real-time access to article data.
Step 7: Run the Automation on Cloud or Desktop
Once all configurations are set, click Run to start the automation. Choose between Cloud or Desktop mode for running the automation:
- Cloud: Runs the automation on TexAu’s servers, ideal for hands-free operation.
- Desktop: Run locally on your device if you prefer using your own IP address, which can help simulate manual activity.
Tip: Running the automation on Desktop mode saves cloud runtime costs and provides more control over task execution.
Step 8: Access the Data from the Data Store
After the automation completes, go to the Data Store section in TexAu to access the extracted article data. Locate the LinkedIn Profile Articles Export automation and click See Data to view or download the results.
The LinkedIn Profile Articles Export automation streamlines the process of collecting and analyzing articles from LinkedIn profiles, making it easy to track content trends and engagement. With scheduling options, bulk input, and export to Google Sheets or CSV, this tool is valuable for marketers, sales teams, and analysts seeking actionable insights from LinkedIn content.
