Networking on LinkedIn can unlock numerous opportunities for professionals and businesses alike. The 'Save mutual connections from a LinkedIn profile to Coda' playbook leverages Bardeen's scraping capabilities to capture valuable connection data from LinkedIn profiles and organize it efficiently in Coda tables. This workflow is ideal for those looking to streamline their lead generation, contact management, or networking efforts by keeping track of mutual connections within their industry or niche.

Here's how this workflow simplifies saving LinkedIn connections to Coda:

  • Step 1: Scrape LinkedIn Profile - The Scraper is used to extract mutual connections from the LinkedIn profile that is currently open in your active tab. This data will form the basis of your networking efforts.
  • Step 2: Scrape Connections in Background - In the background, Bardeen continues to scrape data using the LinkedIn people search template. This step ensures that you don't miss out on any mutual connections while you are working on other tasks.
  • Step 3: Save to Coda Table - Finally, the mutual connections data is neatly saved into a Coda table. Coda blends the flexibility of documents and spreadsheets, allowing you to store and manipulate data as needed.

Step 1: Create a Coda table

The first step is to create a Coda table with the LinkedIn mutual connection information you would like to save.

Bardeen will extract information from the currently opened LinkedIn account’s mutual connection link and save information like name, headline, location, connection degree, and profile link.

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.

Click the “Pin it” button at the top of this page to get this automation saved to your Playbooks.

Activate Bardeen (or hit Option + B on Mac or ALT + B on PC on your keyboard) and click on the playbook card. The setup flow will start. 

You will be asked to specify a Coda table and the maximum number of connections you would like to save. After you choose the database and maximum number of LinkedIn mutual connections, you will get a prompt to map the information to the fields in Coda.

The left side consists of all the fields Bardeen will scrape for you. On the right side, specify the fields in Coda that you want to associate with the information on the left. If you don’t want a piece of information, leave that field empty, and it will be skipped. That’s it!

Click on “Save Input” and checkmark Coda. You can edit Inputs later by hovering over the playbook. 

Step 3: Run the playbook to save mutual connections from LinkedIn profile to Coda
