Connect a LinkedIn account

Connect a LinkedIn account with a password, cookies or a Gologin profile, choose the IP country and pass LinkedIn's checks in the same window.

Written by Alexander

You connect each LinkedIn account once. After that, it stays signed in and works in the cloud.

Connect an account

  1. Open Accounts and click Connect account.

  2. Choose the network. LinkedIn is available now.

  3. Choose where the IP comes from:

    • A dedicated IP in one of the available countries: Brazil, France, Germany, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Romania, South Korea, Turkey, the United Kingdom or the United States. The list can change.

    • Your own proxy. Enter it, click Check proxy, then Use this proxy.

  4. Sign in to LinkedIn in one of three ways:

    • Credentials - the account's email and password. The password is stored encrypted and is used only to restore the session later.

    • Cookies - the li_at cookie from a browser where you're signed in to LinkedIn. You don't need the password.

    • Gologin profile - a Gologin profile that is already signed in to LinkedIn. No new sign-in is needed, and the account uses the profile's own proxy.

  5. To bring in your existing LinkedIn conversations, check Import existing conversations. Otherwise, only conversations from the moment of connection are stored.

  6. Click Login. Gologin assigns a dedicated IP, creates a browser profile for the account and signs in to LinkedIn.

💡 To copy the li_at cookie, open LinkedIn in a browser where you're signed in, press F12, go to Application > Cookies > https://www.linkedin.com (in Firefox: Storage > Cookies) and copy the value of li_at.

Pass LinkedIn checks

LinkedIn may ask you to confirm that it's you. You do it in the same window:

  • Code from email - enter the code LinkedIn sent to the account's email.

  • Authenticator app - enter the code from Google Authenticator or a similar app.

  • Phone number - enter a phone number. LinkedIn usually sends a code to it.

  • LinkedIn app - confirm the sign-in in the LinkedIn app on your phone. The window continues on its own.

CAPTCHA is solved automatically. If LinkedIn shows a check that can't be passed automatically, a browser window opens so you can pass it yourself.

Each check waits up to 10 minutes. If the code isn't entered or the sign-in isn't confirmed in time, sign in again.

If you see LinkedIn asked for an extra check we can't complete here, sign in with cookies instead, connect the account with the li_at cookie.

Disconnect or delete an account

  • Delete. The account, its chats and history are removed for good. Tasks running from it stop, and its seat becomes free for another account.
