Step 1: Create an Airtable

The first step is to create an Airtable with the LinkedIn post information you want to save.

Bardeen will extract information like author, text, translated text and link from the currently opened linkedin post and save it to your database, after your setup is complete.

Step 2: Integrate Airtable and set up LinkedIn post scraper

You will be redirected to install the browser extension when you run it for the first time. Bardeen will also prompt you to integrate Airtable.

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

Click on the playbook card, and the setup flow will start. 

You will be asked to specify your Airtable base from Step #1 and a target language for the LinkedIn post. After you choose the database and target language, you will get a prompt to map the information to the fields in Airtable.

The left side consists of all the fields Bardeen will scrape for you. On the right side, specify the fields in Airtable 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 Airtable. You can edit Inputs later by hovering over the playbook. 

Step 3: Copy a LinkedIn post and its translation to Airtable

When you come across a LinkedIn post you want to save and translate, activate Bardeen (or hit OPTION + B) and run this playbook.

It will get the LinkedIn post information, save the text, translate it and add it to your Airtable along with the post link.
