Save LinkedIn Profiles to Google Sheets

If you use LinkedIn to find leads, prospects, or candidates, you can save profiles to Google Sheets using the Add to Sheets extension. This makes it easy to keep track of contacts and leads in a spreadsheet, so you can follow up with them later or set up an automation to sync with your Customer Relationship Management (CRM) software.

You can also use this approach to save other content from LinkedIn, such as posts, jobs, and companies, to Google Sheets. This can help you keep track of information you find on LinkedIn and organize it in a way that makes sense for you.

Adding profile links to your spreadsheet

After you’ve installed the extension, you can start saving LinkedIn profiles to Google Sheets. Here’s how to get started:

Create a spreadsheet called LinkedIn Profiles and a sheet called Sheet1. In the sheet, create columns for Name, Title, Company, Location, and Profile URL. Give this configuration a name, such as LinkedIn Profiles.

Name	Title	Company	Location	Profile URL

Then in the extension, configure where you want to save content and give it a name. For example, create a column configuration for Profile URL and give it a label like Profile URL.

• The spreadsheet you want to save content to > LinkedIn Profiles
• The sheet in the spreadsheet > Sheet1
• The column in the sheet > (E) Profile URL
• And give the configuration a name > 💼 Profile URL

Now, when you’re browsing LinkedIn, right-click on a profile page and select the Profile URL menu item to save the profile to your spreadsheet.

This will save the profile URL to the Profile URL column in the Sheet1 sheet of the LinkedIn Profiles spreadsheet.

Name	Title	Company	Location	Profile URL
				https://www.linkedin.com/in/johndoe/

You can save other content from LinkedIn, such as posts and jobs, to Google Sheets using the same process. You’ll just create a new configuration for the content you want to save and give it a name. Then select the content (instead of just right-clicking the page) on the page and right-click to save it to your Google Sheets. For example, you can save a job description or a post to your Google Sheets.

Job Description	Job URL
Selected job description text from page

Find All Emails in Sales Navigator

If you’re using LinkedIn Sales Navigator to find leads and prospects, you can use the extension to find all emails on a page and save them to Google Sheets. This can help you quickly gather contact information for leads and prospects you find on LinkedIn.

If needed, you can also save to multiple sheets or even multiple columns in the same sheet. This can help you organize your data across your own spreadsheets or shared spreadsheets with your team.

Quick Entry for Fast Lead Data Entry

For sales professionals, business development reps, and recruiters managing LinkedIn leads, the Quick Row Entry feature in Add to Sheets makes adding complete contact information incredibly fast and efficient. Instead of manually entering data cell by cell, you can add complete lead entries with just a few clicks. This feature works especially well with Google Sheets CRM templates since it automatically creates forms based on your column headers.

How Quick Row Entry Works for Lead Management

1. Automatic Form Generation: The extension reads your lead sheet’s column headers (like “Name”, “Title”, “Company”, “Location”, “Profile URL”, “Email”) and creates a form with those exact fields.

2. Fast Data Entry: Fill out the complete form and submit the entire row at once, perfect for quickly logging leads as you research them on LinkedIn.

3. Keyboard Shortcuts for Speed:

   • Shift + Enter: Save and keep the form filled (great for adding multiple leads from the same company)
   • Cmd (Mac)/Ctrl (Windows) + Enter: Save and clear the form (ready for the next lead)
   • Escape: Clear the entire form

Perfect for LinkedIn Lead Scenarios

Quick Row Entry is ideal for LinkedIn lead management because it maintains the structure of your prospect data:

• Profile Research: Quickly log contact details with name, title, company, and profile URL
• Sales Navigator Tracking: Add leads discovered through Sales Navigator with full contact information
• Recruiting Pipeline: Enter candidate details with current role, location, and contact preferences
• Event Follow-ups: Track connections made at networking events or LinkedIn groups
