πŸš€ Setting up a LinkedIn account is very easy πŸš€.

There are two ways you can set up your LinkedIn account.

  1. The first option is to manually set up your account by using LinkedIn credentials (email and password)

  2. The second option is to do it via HeyReach Chrome extension

Connect by entering your LinkedIn Credentials

This is the preferred way to connect your LinkedIn accounts, as it allows us to auto-relogin when the session ends, a.k.a. your LinkedIn account will never disconnect.

To connect your LinkedIn account, navigate to the LinkedIn Account section and click the β€œLink account” option.

To manually set up your account, fill in the LinkedIn email and LinkedIn password section.

🀫 Disclaimer: We hash your credentials, so they are perfectly safe, and nobody can see and access them.

Now choose whether you want to import and track conversations from your LinkedIn account or track only conversations started from HeyReach.

This is a super important privacy feature that allows you to protect your private LinkedIn conversations from being accessed by the other members of your organization.

πŸ’‘ The login action can take from 1 to 4 minutes, and will be done in the background - so you don't have to wait on this screen.

Sometimes while doing the login, LinkedIn may ask for a PIN code, to verify that it's you the one who's trying to login. This code can be sent to your email, SMS or Google Authenticator. Note that sometimes getting the PIN code from LinkedIn may take some time, so be patient.

Insert the PIN code you received and click the β€œSubmit” button.

πŸ”§ Technical explanation: In the background, we are starting a new login session for each LinkedIn account. We are dedicating a high-quality residential static proxy, and simulate real person's device (PC or mobile).


Connect by HeyReach Chrome Extension

If you don't feel comfortable sharing your LinkedIn credentials, or the manual login doesn't work for your LinkedIn account at the moment - feel free to use the Chrome Extension to login.

πŸ‘‰ Note: Logging through the extension is done using your current browser session (cookies), and may result in disconnecting the LinkedIn account from HeyReach, if you log out from LinkedIn. If that happens, we'll let you know, and you'll just relogin that LinkedIn sender.

First, you will need to install the HeyReach Chrome extension βœ….

When you have the extension installed, go back to HeyReach, and click on β€œLink Account”. Select the β€œConnect via our Chrome Extension” button.

Again, select the privacy setting in your LinkedIn inbox.

β€œTrack and import all LinkedIn conversations” means that you will get only those conversations that happened in the last 30 days. You'll also get all future conversations.

After this, click β€œYes Connect”, sit back, and relax 😎.

When everything is ready, your account will appear, and you can see your status, how many connections, and followers you have.

🫑 Want to disconnect your account from HeyReach? No problem!

Simply click on the three dots icon on the far right, then choose the β€œDisconnect account” button, and your LinkedIn account will be disconnected.
