detail.loadingPreview
Stay informed about critical changes to your LinkedIn network. This workflow automatically monitors LinkedIn profiles and sends instant Slack notifications for any updates, ensuring you never miss an important career move or company shift.
About This Workflow
This n8n workflow is designed to provide proactive LinkedIn profile change monitoring. It leverages Google Sheets to maintain a list of profiles to track and uses an API to scrape current profile data. By comparing the scraped data with previously recorded information, the workflow intelligently detects modifications in key profile fields such as first name, last name, headline, and current position. Upon identifying any changes, it dispatches a detailed notification to a designated Slack channel, enabling you to remain agile and responsive to shifts within your professional network. This is ideal for sales teams, recruiters, and business development professionals who rely on up-to-date professional insights.

How To Use
