How does this automation work?
Bardeen's workflow automates the process of capturing LinkedIn company headcount data, enabling businesses to efficiently track potential client or competitor growth and power their sales and market research efforts. By saving this information directly to Coda, teams can analyze trends, integrate with other data, and make informed decisions quickly without the manual work of data entry.
Here's how this workflow saves LinkedIn company headcount to a Coda table:
- Step 1: Get current LinkedIn page URL - This command captures the URL of the LinkedIn company profile you are currently viewing.
- Step 2: Prepare URL for scraping - The URL obtained from the previous step is prepared for the scraping process.
- Step 3: Scrape LinkedIn company profile - Bardeen's Scraper goes into action, extracting headcount data from the LinkedIn company profile in the background, ensuring you can continue your work uninterrupted.
- Step 4: Isolate headcount information - The scraped data is processed to extract the specific headcount information.
- Step 5: Select headcount data - From the processed data, the specific headcount figure is identified and prepared for the final step.
- Step 6: Save data to Coda - The headcount information is then securely saved to your designated Coda table, allowing for easy access and analysis.

Step 2: Install the extension and map the data to Coda
You will be redirected to install the browser extension when you run it for the first time. Bardeen will also prompt you to integrate Coda.
