Scraping Personalized Professional Network Data? Why You'll Need the Chrome Extension

Some professional network features need our Chrome Extension since they rely on your session data, which we don't access for privacy reasons.

Some professional network features—like scraping 1st-degree connections, "followed companies," or saved account lists—depend on your personal session data. For privacy and security reasons, we never access this via backend scraping.

To safely handle these account-specific views, you'll need to use our Chrome Extension, which works by securely accessing data you can already see in your own browser session.

This approach is ideal for scraping personalized views like:

  • Following your company
  • Have shared experiences with you
  • With TeamLink intro
  • Past customer
  • Past colleague
  • Executive TeamLink
  • Viewed your profile
  • Connection (1st, 2nd, Group, 3rd+, TeamLink)
  • Connections of (Search by name)
  • Groups (based on your memberships)
  • TeamLink connections of
  • Account lists
  • Lead lists
  • People in CRM
  • People you interacted with
  • Saved leads and accounts

The chrome extension allows you to:

  • Switch tabs as the scrape continues
  • Track progress of how many profiles and pages have been scrapped
  • Stop and get the results at any point and you will get a link to redirect you to your project page in Kuration AI
