Step 1: Create a Coda table to save LinkedIn company information

You will be asked to specify a Coda table and the maximum number of companies you would like to extract. After you choose the database and maximum number of companies to extract, 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 and the maximum number of companies. This will save you time from setup in the future. You can edit Inputs later by hovering over the playbook.
