💡 Pro Tip — If you’re pulling LinkedIn data through HTTP requests or dealing with API restrictions, there’s a community node called ScraperNode that handles this natively. It has dedicated scrapers for profiles, companies, jobs, and people search — you just pass a URL and get structured data back.

How it works
This automation streamlines lead generation from LinkedIn by performing the following actions:
- Targets a specific LinkedIn page: You provide a URL for either a personal profile (e.g., an industry influencer) or a company page (e.g., your own or a competitor’s).
- Fetches Recent Posts: It scans the page for recent posts, looking back over a customizable number of days.
- Extracts Engaged Users: The automation gathers a unique list of every person who has commented on or reacted to the posts it finds.
- Enriches Lead Data: If you provide a Prospeo API key, it enriches each lead with their email address, job title, and company information. Without a key, it falls back to providing publicly available LinkedIn profile details like name, job title, and company.
- Delivers Results: Finally, the automation delivers the list of enriched leads. You can choose to receive the data as a simple JSON object or have it automatically compiled and saved into a new, cleanly formatted Google Sheet.
Customization Ideas
This template offers significant flexibility to tailor the lead generation process to your specific needs. You can easily customize:
- The Source: Switch between targeting any personal LinkedIn profile or any company page.
- The Timeframe: Adjust the “lookback period” to gather leads from posts made in the last week, month, or any other duration.
- The Scale: Control the costs and runtime by setting limits on the maximum number of posts to analyze and the total number of leads to generate.
- The Enrichment Level: Choose between deep enrichment with email addresses (requires a Prospeo API key) or basic profile enrichment without one.
- The Output Format: Decide whether you want the final lead list delivered as raw data for other systems (JSON) or organized neatly in a Google Sheet.
