Automate LinkedIn scraping tool weekly

Hi there Bardeen Community!

I was hoping someone could help me in regards to this autobook:

I want to scrape jobs weekly from the LinkedIn link that I specify in the builder. However, it still asks me for what link to scrape everytime it executes. How do I set the opened link as the active tab to scrape automatically?

Also, how can I let this autobook run automatically without me having to use my local computer?

Kind regards,
Adam

Hi @adamjcordy, here’s my thoughts below:

The “Scrape data on active tab” means Bardeen will run from the browser tab that you have currently selected at the time the automation is executed. Therefore, it’s best practices not to use this action within Autobooks that run on a schedule as you would have to ensure you have the correct tab active or in focus at the scheduled time. To get around this, you need to use the “Scrape data in the background” action rather.

Bardeen is currently working on implementing running automations from the cloud.

I hope this helps,
Thank you,
Jess
