Step 1: Create a SmartSuite table

The first step is to create a SmartSuite table with all the information you want to save from LinkedIn. Make sure to include all the fields that you want to get from a LinkedIn profile.

Bardeen will get information like name, headline, about, current company, skills, languages, links and much more. It will then save this information to your SmartSuite table, once your setup is complete.

Step 2: Install the extension and map the information to SmartSuite

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

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 a Windows machine on your keyboard) and click on the playbook card. The setup flow will start. 

You will be asked to specify a SmartSuite solution and a SmartSuite table for the information. After you choose your database, you will get a prompt to map the information to the fields in SmartSuite. 

The left side consists of all the fields Bardeen will get from LinkedIn profile. On the right side, specify the fields in your SmartSuite table 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 SmartSuite. This will save you time from setup in the future. You can edit Inputs later by hovering over the playbook. 

Step 3: Run the playbook and copy a LinkedIn profile to SmartSuite

When you want to copy a LinkedIn profile to your SmartSuite solution and table, activate Bardeen (or hit Option + B on Mac or ALT + B on a Windows machine on your keyboard) and run this playbook. 

It will get all the information, and save it to your SmartSuite table.

You can also edit the playbook and add your next action to further customize the automation.
