Google Sheets: What is the best way to export data to Google Sheets?

Exporting data (ex: scraped data or app data) from Bardeen to Google Sheets is possible with our action to “Add Rows to Google Sheets”.

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

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.
