Linked Helper Platform Help
Linked Helper (a.k.a. Linked Helper 2) is a long-running desktop LinkedIn automation app — it runs in its own bundled browser on your machine (not a Chrome extension, not cloud), auto-executing connection requests, messages, InMail, endorsements, and profile scraping inside drip-style campaigns ("funnels"). It has a built-in mini-CRM, an email finder, native CRM connectors, and outbound webhooks. There is no public inbound REST API — automation is webhook-out + native integrations + Zapier/Make.
Step 1 — Gather context
If references/learnings.md exists, read it first for accumulated platform knowledge.
Ask only what you need (skip if the prompt already says):
- What's the goal? (a) account restricted/banned & recovery, (b) build/configure a campaign funnel, (c) push data to a CRM/webhook, (d) plan/credits/limits question, (e) run it without keeping my computer on, (f) something else.
- Which plan? Trial / Standard ($15/mo) / Pro ($45/mo) — gates daily action volume and webhook count.
- How is it running? Local desktop, or on a VPS / dedicated cloud machine?
Step 2 — Route or answer directly
| If the user wants… | Route to |
|---|---|
| To design the sequence strategy/copy (timing, touches, A/B) | /sales-cadence {question} |
| General LinkedIn deliverability of the email channel found via email finder | /sales-deliverability {question} |
| To compare Linked Helper vs Waalaxy/Dripify/Expandi/HeyReach/PhantomBuster | /sales-cadence {question} (cross-platform selection) |
When routing, give the exact command: "This is a {domain} question — run: /sales-cadence {user's original question}".
Otherwise answer directly from Step 3.
Step 3 — Linked Helper platform reference
Read references/platform-guide.md for the full reference — capabilities & automation surface, pricing/limits, data model, webhook recipes, and CRM-sync patterns. For the verbatim webhook field list and integration docs, read references/linkedhelper-api-reference.md.
Answer using only the relevant section — don't dump the whole guide.
Step 4 — Actionable guidance
- Restricted account? Stop all automation immediately, reduce daily limits drastically, and re-warm over weeks. Restriction risk scales with daily action volume — the "safety features" reduce but never eliminate it.
- Computer-on problem? The desktop app only runs while open and online. The standard fix is to run it on a small always-on VPS / dedicated cloud machine with one proxy per LinkedIn account.
- CRM duplicates? Always include LinkedIn IDs in the webhook/sync field mapping so the CRM dedupes on a stable key.
- Hitting caps? Standard = 20 advanced actions/day + 20 webhook profiles/day; Pro = unlimited. One license drives exactly one LinkedIn account.
If you discover a gotcha or tip not in references/learnings.md, append it there with today's date.
Gotchas
Best-effort from research (2026-06) — review these, especially plan-gated features and integration details that may be outdated.
- Account-restriction risk is real and the #1 complaint. Third-party tests cite ~23% restriction within 90 days for aggressive configs. Stay well under safe daily limits and ramp new accounts slowly; LinkedIn has been detecting Linked Helper more in recent cycles.
- Desktop-only. Campaigns pause when the computer sleeps, the app closes, or the internet drops. It is not cloud-hosted — keep it running or move it to a VPS.
- LinkedIn-only. No native email sending channel. The email finder discovers addresses, but you export them to a separate sending tool.
- No inbound REST API. Programmatic output is via outbound webhooks (Send person / Send replied / Send organization to webhook) and native CRM connectors, not an API you POST into.
- One license = one LinkedIn account. Multi-account = multiple licenses/seats (Workspace for teams).
- Webhook profiles are metered on Standard (20/day); messaging-history columns are configurable per action.

Examples
Example 1: Account got restricted
User says: "My LinkedIn account got restricted even though I followed Linked Helper's safe-limit recommendations. What now?"
Skill does: Explains restriction risk scales with volume regardless of safety toggles, gives an immediate stop-and-cool-down plan, lower daily limits, slow re-warm, and one-proxy-per-account hygiene; notes recent increased detection.
Example 2 (developer/automation): Push replied leads to a CRM via webhook
User says: "How do I send everyone who replies in my campaign — with their email and message history — into HubSpot automatically?"
Skill does: Points to the "Send replied to Webhook" plug-in (or native HubSpot connector), shows the JSON field set (profile_url, email, first_name, last_name, last reply, messaging history), how to map LinkedIn IDs to avoid duplicates, and a Zapier/Make catch-hook → HubSpot recipe.
Example 3: Run without keeping my laptop on
User says: "I have to leave my computer on all day for campaigns to run. Is there a better way?"
Skill does: Explains the desktop-only execution model, recommends a small always-on VPS / dedicated cloud machine with a single matching-geo proxy per account, and warns against running multiple LinkedIn accounts off one IP.
Troubleshooting
LinkedIn account restricted/banned
Cause: Daily action volume too high; LinkedIn detected automated patterns.
Solution: Halt automation, drop daily limits, randomize delays, run one proxy per account with geo-matching, and re-warm over 2-4 weeks. Accept that safety settings reduce — not eliminate — risk.
Campaigns stop running
Cause: It's a desktop app — it only runs while open, awake, and online.
Solution: Disable sleep, keep the app foregrounded, or migrate to an always-on VPS/dedicated machine.
Duplicate or missing contacts in the CRM
Cause: Sync keyed on name/email instead of a stable LinkedIn ID; or webhook profile cap hit on Standard.
Solution: Include LinkedIn IDs (member_id / profile_url) in the field mapping so the CRM dedupes; upgrade to Pro for unlimited webhook profiles if you're hitting the 20/day Standard cap.
