LinkedIn and OpenAI integration

n8n lets you integrate LinkedIn with OpenAI to build powerful workflows. Design automation that extracts, transforms and loads data between your apps and services. You can choose from thousands of ready-made apps or use our universal HTTP connector to sync apps not yet in our library.

Build your own LinkedIn and OpenAI integration

Create custom LinkedIn and OpenAI workflows by choosing triggers and actions. Nodes come with global operations and settings, as well as app-specific parameters that can be configured. You can also use the HTTP Request node to query data from any app or service with a REST API.

Automate LinkedIn Outreach with Notion and OpenAI

This template is based on the following template. Thank you for the groundwork, Matheus.

How it works:

  1. Store your snippets of text in a Notion table. Each snippet should have an image associated with it (copy + pasted into the text)
  2. Connect to your table via a Notion "integration", from which N8N can then query your pre-meditated posts
  3. The text is fed through an OpenAI assistant to boost engagement via formatting
  4. The re-formatted text along with the image pulled from the Notion snippet are combined into a post for your LinkedIn
  5. The row in the original Notion table from step 1 containing this post is set to a status of "Done"

Set up steps:

  • You will need to create a Notion "integration", which will yield a "secret key" which you enter into your N8N as a "Credential". Find your Notion integrations here.
  • You will need to create a LinkedIn "app" in order to post on your behalf. When creating your LinkedIn "app", you will be required to link this "app" to a company page on LinkedIn. If you are doing this for yourself, seach for the "Default Company Payge (for API testing)", and select this page as it is provided by LinkedIn for individuals. You can find your LinkedIn apps here, and if you get stuck, further instructions on setting up this workflow (including this LinkedIn OAuth piece) can be found in this YouTube Video Aide to these instructions.
  • Lastly, you will need to create an OpenAI API key, found on your OpenAI Playground Dashboard. Once you created an API key, make sure you have an assistant created from the "Assistants" tab on the OpenAI dashboard. This assistant and its instructions will be needed for carrying out the re-formatting of your post.
