# LinkedIn automation

> Safely automate LinkedIn outreach with OS-level browser control.

harp automates LinkedIn actions by controlling Chrome at the operating system level — no browser extensions, no detectable automation fingerprint. Actions happen at human speed with built-in safety limits.

> [!WARNING]
>
> LinkedIn automation requires macOS and a local installation of harp. Cloud-hosted LinkedIn automation is coming soon.

## Setup

1. Make sure Chrome is installed and you're logged into LinkedIn
2. Go to **LinkedIn** in the sidebar
3. The **Account** tab shows your connection status and daily limits

## Available actions

| Action | What it does |
| - | - |
| Visit profile | Opens a contact's LinkedIn profile |
| Send connection | Sends a connection request with an optional note |
| Send message | Sends a direct message to a 1st-degree connection |
| Follow | Follows a contact's profile |
| Like posts | Likes recent posts on a contact's profile |
| Send InMail | Sends an InMail to non-connections (requires LinkedIn premium) |
| Withdraw invite | Withdraws a pending connection request |
| Scrape profile | Extracts profile data and saves it to the contact record |

## Safety engine

harp enforces daily limits and randomized delays to keep your account safe.

### Default limits

Go to **LinkedIn > Limits & Delays** to configure:

* **Daily connection requests** — max per day
* **Daily messages** — max per day
* **Daily profile visits** — max per day
* **Delay between actions** — randomized range (e.g., 30-90 seconds)

> [!TIP]
>
> Start conservative (10-15 connections/day) and increase gradually over 2-3 weeks. New accounts with sudden high activity get flagged.

### Warm-up

If your LinkedIn account is new or hasn't been actively used, start with profile visits and follows before sending connection requests. Build up activity gradually.

## Using LinkedIn in sequences

Add LinkedIn steps to any sequence in the canvas builder. LinkedIn actions execute on the same schedule as your sequence, respecting daily limits.

## Analytics

The **LinkedIn > Analytics** tab shows daily stats: connections sent, accepted, messages sent, profiles visited, and acceptance rate over time.
