FAQs

Scraper: How can I get data from multiple sections of a profile (Eg: getting the experience section on a linkedin profile)?

Cases like this require you to scrape the links to the sections and use the background scraper to get details from every section.

Scraper: If I scrape LinkedIn profiles, will they see me checking their profile?

Yes. Since Bardeen lives on your browser, Playbooks like "Enrich Linkedin links from a Google Sheet" open the Linkedin profiles in the background and scrape their information. This happens from your currently opened Linkedin account, so people can see you've visited their profile.

Playbooks: My shared playbook is not updating, how can I share an updated version?

For your shared playbook to be updated, you need to unshare your playbook and share it again. This will generate a new link. ‍To do this: ‍1) Edit the playbook. 2) Unshare it (click on share, then the “unshare” button) 3) Share it again

Youtube: Can I download a Youtube video to my computer using Bardeen?

Unfortunately, Bardeen is not able to download videos to your computer.
