LinkedIn

How does it work

Zero's LinkedIn extension syncs messages with your contacts automatically into Zero.

You'll see the messages under Feed and Activity:

You can view the LinkedIn connection status and last message with properties "LinkedIn connections" and "Last activity":

Also, all the messages are in your Inbox

You can save contacts and companies directly from LinkedIn to Zero:

How to install

1

Add the Zero Chrome Extension to your Chrome or Chromium-based browser, like Arc or Brave

2

Pin the extension

3

Connect the extension

LinkedIn Bulk Messaging

Sending LinkedIn messages in bulk from Zero is now possible with the Zero Chrome Extension.

How it works

  • You can send up to 50 messages per 24-hour rolling window.

  • Only 1st-degree connections can be messaged. Contacts must have valid LinkedIn data (e.g., LinkedIn handle) in Zero.

  • Drafts are created in Zero but sent from LinkedIn with the Zero Chrome extension.

  • You need to open LinkedIn and trigger the campaign manually.

  • Messages are sent automatically in the background. Keep the LinkedIn tab open while the campaign runs!

Creating Draft LinkedIn Messages

1

Open a contacts list.

2

Select contacts and click the paper plane icon on the bottom bar.

3

In the message composer, choose LinkedIn from top. Pick a Zero account as sender and write your message template.

4

Click contacts on the left to preview personalization.

5

Click Add to Chrome Extension.

  • ⚠️ Contacts must be 1st-degree connections of the sender

  • The Chrome Extension must be installed with fully synced connections.

6

Drafts are now available in the extension, and can also be viewed in Inbox > Drafts > Campaign #n in Zero.

You can rename the campaign via ··· > Rename.

Executing a Bulk Message Campaign

1

Open LinkedIn and click the Zero logo (bottom-left).

2

Select the campaign and start it.

3

⚠️ Keep the tab open - do not refresh, navigate away, or click links while running.

4

You can pause a campaign by clicking it. Pausing may take a few seconds if a message is mid-send.

If you close the tab or browser abruptly, we make sure no duplicate messages are sent when restarting - but the message that was in progress may not be delivered, and we have no way of confirming whether it went through.

5

Once the campaign finishes, you’ll get a notification.

  • If any messages fail, you’ll also be alerted.

  • Failed messages can be found in Inbox > Drafts under a red "Campaigns with failed messages" banner.

  • Re-add failed messages via ··· > Re-add messages

Using Automations for generating drafts

1

Go to Automations and create a new automation.

2

Choose “Contacts” as the record type for whichever trigger you prefer.

3

Add the Send LinkedIn Message action.

4

Choose which Zero account to assign the message drafts and write your message template.

  • ⚠️ Contacts must be 1st-degree connections of the sender

  • The Chrome Extension must be installed with fully synced connections.

5

When you’re happy with the template, give a name to your automation, activate the automation from the upper right corner and press the save button

6

When the extension runs, it creates a campaign named: Automation: {automation name or ID}

  • Drafts are now ready to send and visible under Inbox > Drafts.

  • ⚠️ If you rename the campaign manually, the automation will just create another campaign under the original name. To fully rename it, rename the automation itself.
