LinkedIn Integration Guide
This guide walks you through connecting LinkedIn to Unify—so you can use Unify while browsing LinkedIn and unlock LinkedIn signals within Unify.
Overview
The LinkedIn integration with Unify is dual-pronged:
- It allows you to use Unify features directly while browsing LinkedIn.
- It also enables Unify to use LinkedIn data inside the app — powering new Play triggers like post comments, profile followers, and more.
All of this is made possible through the Unify Browser Extension (UBE), which acts as the bridge between LinkedIn and Unify.
1. Install the Unify Browser Extension
To get started, download the Unify Browser Extension from the Chrome Web Store.

2. Open the Extension
Once installed, click the Unify icon in your Chrome toolbar to open it.

3. Sign in to Unify
You’ll be prompted to sign in with your Unify credentials. This connects your extension to your Unify account and unlocks all functionality.
If you were already signed in to Unify in your browser, you may not need to sign in again.

5. What This Unlocks
Once connected:
- On LinkedIn: You can use Unify’s features, like enrichment and sequencing, in-line while browsing profiles and posts.
- In Unify: You can now use LinkedIn-based signals in Plays, like post commenters, new followers, company page engagement, and more.
The UBE is what enables LinkedIn data to flow into the Unify platform. Without it, you won’t see LinkedIn signals or be able to automate outreach based on LinkedIn activity.
