What is LinkedIn Connections Scraper?
LinkedIn Connections Scraper is a Chrome extension that exports your own LinkedIn connections with their profile data—without API access or complex workarounds.
Perfect for professionals who want to backup their network, import connections to a CRM, or analyze their professional relationships.
Key Use Cases
CRM Import
Export your LinkedIn network and import into Salesforce, HubSpot, or other CRM tools. Maintain relationship data outside of LinkedIn.
Network Backup
Create a backup of your professional network. If you change roles or industries, your connection data stays with you.
Relationship Management
Analyze your network—identify clusters, track when you connected with people, and organize your professional relationships.
Data You Can Extract
InsightSocial captures connection data including:
- Profile info: Name, headline, current company
- Location: Geographic location
- Connection: When you connected (if visible)
- Contact: LinkedIn profile URL
- Details: Title and company information
Tips for Better Results
Export Your Full Network
Run a complete export periodically to maintain an up-to-date backup of your connections.
Use for Job Transitions
Before changing jobs or industries, export your network. Your connections are your career asset.
Segment by Industry
After export, categorize connections by industry, company, or relationship type for targeted networking.
Important Limitations
Your Connections Only
You can only export your own connections. Other people's connection lists are not visible on LinkedIn.
LinkedIn's Native Export
LinkedIn offers a basic data export in Settings. InsightSocial provides richer data and better formatting for CRM import.
Legal Considerations
Exporting your own connection data is your right—these are your professional relationships. However, use this data responsibly. Don't spam your connections or share their data inappropriately.
