Frequently Asked Questions about Google Contacts + LinkedIn integrations
New to automation with Zapier? You're not alone. Here are some answers to common questions about how Zapier works with Google Contacts and LinkedIn
How do I start integrating Google Contacts with LinkedIn using your platform?
To begin integrating Google Contacts with LinkedIn, you need to create an account with us and set up a Zap. Choose Google Contacts as your trigger app and select a trigger event, such as 'New or Updated Contact'. Next, select LinkedIn as your action app and choose an action, like 'Add or Update Contact'. After configuring the details, test the Zap to ensure it works correctly.
Can I automatically add new Google Contacts to my LinkedIn network?
Yes, once you set up the integration via our platform, every time a new contact is added in Google Contacts, a corresponding action can be triggered to invite them on LinkedIn. You'll need to set this up by choosing the appropriate triggers and actions during the integration setup.
What types of triggers are available for syncing Google Contacts with LinkedIn?
We offer several triggers for this integration. For Google Contacts, you can choose triggers like 'New Contact', 'Updated Contact', or 'New Group'. These trigger specific actions on LinkedIn, such as sending invitations or updating existing connections.
Is it possible to customize which Google Contacts get imported into LinkedIn?
Absolutely! You can specify filter criteria when setting up your Zap so that only certain contacts get imported into LinkedIn. For instance, you can filter by contact group or label within Google Contacts to refine which contacts are synced.
Does your integration support two-way sync between Google Contacts and LinkedIn?
Currently, our integration primarily supports one-way sync from Google Contacts to LinkedIn. This means actions are triggered on LinkedIn based on changes in Google Contacts. Two-way sync capabilities may not be fully supported at this time.
How frequently does the synchronization occur between these platforms?
The frequency of synchronization depends on how you've configured the triggers within your Zap setup. Generally, we recommend setting it to check for new data every 15 minutes but options may vary based on your specific requirements.
Are there any limitations when integrating multiple accounts?
When integrating multiple accounts for either Google Contacts or LinkedIn through our service, it's important to ensure that each account is authenticated separately within our platform. There may also be API limitations based on each service's terms of use that dictate how many requests can be made daily.
