How to Import Leads from LinkedIn Post Reactions into Outboundry

Outboundry allows you to import leads directly from the people who have reacted to a LinkedIn post. This helps you target highly engaged prospects who have already shown interest in a topic, product, or brand.

Instead of cold outreach, you can now run warm outreach campaigns based on real engagement signals.

✅ Prerequisites

Before you begin, make sure:

  • You are logged into your LinkedIn account.

  • Your LinkedIn account is connected to Outboundry.

  • You have access to the LinkedIn post whose reactions you want to import.

  • You are logged into LinkedIn in the same browser session as Outboundry.


🚀 Step-by-Step Guide


Step 1: Open the LinkedIn Post

  1. Log in to LinkedIn.

  2. Navigate to the post you want to extract reactions from.

    • This can be:

      • A personal profile post

      • A company page post

      • A group post

      • A sponsored or organic post (if visible)

  3. Make sure the post loads completely.



Step 2: Copy the Post URL

  1. Click the three-dot menu (⋯) on the top-right corner of the post.

  2. Select Copy link to post.

  3. The post URL will be copied to your clipboard.

Example format:

  2. Go to Campaigns.

  3. Open an existing campaign or create a new one.

  4. Click Add Leads → Select Import from LinkedIn Post Reactions.

  5. Paste the copied LinkedIn post URL.

Outboundry will automatically fetch all profiles that reacted to the post.



Step 4: Review Imported Leads

Once the import completes:

  • All imported profiles will appear in the campaign’s Leads tab.

  • Outboundry automatically captures:

    • Full name

    • LinkedIn profile URL

    • Profile photo

    • Headline

    • Current company

    • Location (if available)

You can immediately:

  • Add these leads to outreach sequences

⚡ Important Notes & Best Practices


✔ Visibility Limitations

You can only import users whose reactions are visible to your LinkedIn account. Private or restricted profiles may not be accessible.

Outboundry captures all reaction types including:

  • 👍 Like

  • 👏 Celebrate

Outreach actions follow safe automation limits to protect your LinkedIn account.
