Sales Navigator Auto Connect

The Sales Navigator Auto Connect automation allows you to send LinkedIn connection requests to potential leads automatically. This tool is ideal for founders, marketers, and sales professionals seeking to expand their LinkedIn network efficiently. Configure the automation with ease, export data to Google Sheets or CSV, and run it via the cloud or desktop.

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

Log in to your TexAu account at v2-prod.texau.com. Navigate to the Automation Store and search for Sales Navigator Auto Connect using the search bar to locate this automation.

​

Step 2: Connect to LinkedIn with TexAu

For TexAu to send connection requests on your behalf, connect your LinkedIn account. Click Add Account and select LinkedIn. TexAu offers two secure connection methods:

• Magic Link: Sends a link to your email for seamless login without cookies.
• Using LinkedIn Cookies: Manually enter LinkedIn cookies to enable access.

Tip: Use Magic Link for a quick and hassle-free connection setup.

​

Step 3: Select Your Input Source

Define the profiles you want to send connection requests to. Choose from the following input options:

1. Manually Enter a Single Profile URL: Enter a single LinkedIn profile URL directly.
2. Google Sheets: Paste the public URL of a Google Sheet with profile URLs listed in individual rows.
3. CSV File: Upload a CSV file containing the profile URLs for bulk connections.

Tip: Use Google Sheets or CSV for processing multiple leads efficiently.

​

Step 4: Schedule the Automation (Optional)

Set up the schedule for when you want the automation to run. Click Schedule and choose a frequency:

• None
• At Regular Intervals (e.g., every 8 hours or daily)
• Once
• Every Day
• Specific Days of the Week (e.g., every Monday)
• Specific Days of the Month (e.g., 1st and 15th)
• Specific Dates (e.g., December 31)

Tip: Scheduling helps maintain a steady outreach cadence without manual intervention.

​

Step 5: Iteration Delay (Optional)

To mimic natural activity and prevent account restrictions, configure an Iteration Delay. Set a minimum and maximum delay (in seconds, minutes, or hours) to randomize intervals between connection requests.

Tip: A delay between 30-60 seconds per request is generally recommended.

​

Step 6: Choose Your Output Mode (Optional)

Specify how to save the automation results. Select from these options:

1. Export to Google Sheets: Enable real-time data updates in a connected Google Sheet.
2. CSV File: Save the results as a downloadable CSV file.
3. Output Management Options:
   • Append: Add results to the existing data file.
   • Split: Save each session's output as a separate file.
   • Overwrite: Replace existing data with the latest output.

Tip: Enable Deduplicate to avoid duplicate connections in your output file.

​

Step 7: Run the Automation on Cloud or Desktop

Click Run to execute the automation. Select the preferred mode:

• Cloud: Runs on TexAu's servers for hands-free execution.
• Desktop: Executes locally on your device for IP-specific tasks.

Tip: Desktop mode is ideal for reducing cloud usage costs and maintaining control over execution.

​

Step 8: Access the Data from the Data Store
