Save LinkedIn Profiles to Google Sheets

Save LinkedIn profiles, job posts, and contact info to Google Sheets. Build prospect lists, track candidates, and organize your professional network.

Building a prospect list or candidate pipeline from LinkedIn means endless copy-paste between browser tabs and spreadsheets. Names, titles, companies, URLs — it’s repetitive and slow.

With Add to Sheets, you can save LinkedIn profile data directly to Google Sheets as you browse. Build organized lists of contacts, candidates, or leads without the manual grind.

Why Save LinkedIn Data to Google Sheets?

  • Build prospect lists — Capture leads as you browse profiles
  • Track candidates — Organize recruiting pipelines
  • Manage networking — Keep notes on connections and conversations
  • Research companies — Collect company info and key contacts
  • Organize outreach — Track who you’ve contacted and responses

Step-by-Step: Save LinkedIn Profiles to Google Sheets

1. Install Add to Sheets

Get the Add to Sheets Chrome extension from the Chrome Web Store.

2. Create Your Contact Spreadsheet

Set up columns for the data you want to track:

For prospect lists:

  • Name
  • Title
  • Company
  • Location
  • Profile URL
  • Email
  • Notes
  • Status

For recruiting pipelines:

  • Candidate Name
  • Current Role
  • Company
  • Experience
  • Profile URL
  • Stage
  • Notes

3. Save Profiles as You Browse

To save a LinkedIn profile:

  1. Visit a profile page
  2. Select the person’s name → Right-click → Add to Sheets → Name
  3. Select their headline → Right-click → Add to Sheets → Title
  4. Select the company → Right-click → Add to Sheets → Company
  5. Right-click anywhere → Save Page URL

You can speed this up significantly with keyboard shortcuts — assign a different shortcut to each column and capture a full profile in seconds.

Extract Emails from LinkedIn Pages

If a LinkedIn profile or company page contains email addresses, you can use the email finder feature to extract them automatically. The finder scans the page for email patterns and lets you save them all to your sheet at once — no need to hunt through the page manually. This is a Pro feature that pairs well with building contact lists.

Automate LinkedIn Profile Extraction

For heavy prospecting or recruiting, the LinkedIn Profile automation template takes this further. Instead of saving fields one by one, the automation extracts complete profile data — name, headline, work experience, education, skills — with a single click or keyboard shortcut.

You can also use the LinkedIn Job Post automation to extract structured job listing data from LinkedIn job pages.

Automations use a visual, drag-and-drop builder — no coding required. Set up a workflow once, then run it on every profile you visit.

Pro Tips for LinkedIn + Google Sheets

Build a CRM Without the CRM

For solo founders and small sales teams, a Google Sheet can be a surprisingly effective CRM:

  1. Create columns for contact info, status, and notes
  2. Add a “Last Contacted” column with dates
  3. Use conditional formatting to highlight overdue follow-ups
  4. Use groups to save to multiple sheets — send contacts to both your master list and a project-specific sheet simultaneously

Save LinkedIn Job Listings Too

If you’re job hunting, LinkedIn Jobs works the same way. Save job titles, companies, salary ranges, and URLs as you browse. Check our Indeed job tracking guide for a proven spreadsheet structure that works across all job boards.

Use the Find All Links feature on LinkedIn search results pages to extract every profile URL at once. Save dozens of profile links to your sheet in seconds, then visit each one to fill in the details.

Let AI Formulas Qualify Your Leads

Google Sheets’ built-in =AI() formula (a Google Workspace feature, not part of Add to Sheets) can automatically process the profile data you save. Add AI-powered columns next to your raw data:

Name Headline About Industry Seniority Relevant?
Jane Smith VP Marketing at Acme 15 years in B2B SaaS… =AI(“industry?”, C2) =AI(“seniority?”, B2) =AI(“decision maker for software? yes/no”, B2:C2)

Save the raw data with Add to Sheets, and the AI columns fill in automatically. See our full guide on using AI formulas with saved data for more workflows.

Save Profiles Faster with Quick Row Entry

With Add to Sheets Pro, use Quick Row Entry to save complete profiles in one step:

  1. Open Quick Row Entry from the extension
  2. A form appears with all your columns: Name, Title, Company, Location, URL, Notes
  3. Fill in each field from the profile
  4. Submit — entire row saved at once
  5. Move to the next profile

When you’re working through a list of prospects, Quick Row Entry is dramatically faster than saving each field individually.

Also Works With Other Professional Networks

Add to Sheets works on any website:

  • LinkedIn Sales Navigator
  • AngelList / Wellfound
  • Crunchbase
  • Company websites
  • Conference attendee lists

Use one spreadsheet to track contacts from all sources.
