LinkedIn connection request automation
Turn verified LinkedIn profile URLs into an organized connection workflow
SMTasker processes the profile URLs you have already checked and sends connection requests through the selected LinkedIn account on a connected Android phone, using the schedule and limits you configure.
A useful prospect list often begins outside the automation tool. You identify the people relevant to a role, market, partnership, hiring project, or professional community. Then you review the profiles and confirm that each LinkedIn URL points to the person you intended to include.
LinkedIn connection request automation in SMTasker begins after that preparation. You provide the verified profile URLs, select the LinkedIn account and Android phone, configure the active schedule and limits, and let the Connection Requests tool handle the repeated mobile navigation.
This clean handoff keeps list decisions separate from execution. You retain control over who enters the workflow, while SMTasker reduces the repetitive work of opening profiles and sending requests one by one.
What the Connection Requests tool uses
- LinkedIn profile URLs collected and verified before the run.
- The LinkedIn account selected to send the requests.
- The connected Android phone holding its active session.
- The schedule that defines when the workflow can operate.
- The limits configured for that account and tool.
- The resulting status and logs used to review progress.
Build the list around a specific reason to connect
A list becomes easier to review when every profile belongs for a reason. You may be connecting with people in a target role, professionals attending the same event, possible partners in a specific sector, candidates for a hiring project, or members of a relevant business community.
Keep different purposes in separate URL groups. This makes it easier to assign the list to the right LinkedIn account and understand what a completed workflow actually represents.
Verify the profile URLs before adding them
Open or otherwise review the LinkedIn URLs before they enter SMTasker. Confirm that each one resolves to the intended profile and still belongs to the audience represented by the list.
Remove duplicates and obvious mismatches during preparation. A clean input list gives the automation a clear job and prevents time being spent on targets you would not have chosen manually.
SMTasker processes the verified URLs you supply. It does not discover profiles, scrape LinkedIn search results, score leads, or decide whether a person belongs in the list.
Match the list to the correct sender account
The selected LinkedIn account should make sense for the people on the list. A founder account, recruiter profile, salesperson, and agency client may all pursue different professional relationships.
Use identifiable list and device names so the sender is obvious before activation. When a workflow is copied, review the URL input and active account together rather than assuming both were updated.
Give connection requests their own operating rhythm
Connection Requests is independent from Comment, Like, and Publish. Configure its active periods and limits for the account instead of inheriting a schedule designed for public engagement or content publishing.
Review the first run before loading a larger list. Check the device state, the number of processed inputs, and the LinkedIn account itself. A small initial batch makes setup mistakes easier to identify.
Support outreach with visible professional activity
The account can also use Publish, Like, and Comment as separate workflows. Publishing gives visitors current material to understand. Likes and comments can maintain activity around relevant professional conversations.
These tools do not have to target the same people as the connection list. They simply let you organize several parts of the account’s LinkedIn presence from the same workspace.
