Periodix Actions node

The Periodix Actions node (listed in n8n as Periodix LinkedIn) groups every action into resources. Pick a resource and an operation, choose the connected LinkedIn profile to act from, and fill in the inputs. Every operation returns structured workflow items.

Common parameter: Profile

Every operation runs from a connected LinkedIn profile. The Profile dropdown is loaded from your Periodix Actions account and shows a status indicator next to each profile. If the profile you choose is not connected when the workflow runs, the operation fails.

Search by URL

Parameters

Parameter	Description
Profile	The connected LinkedIn profile to run the search from.
Search URL	A fully qualified LinkedIn or Sales Navigator search URL. Accepts expressions, so a previous node can supply it.
Limit	The maximum number of results to return.
Options → Timeout (Minutes) (advanced)	How long to wait for the search to finish before giving up.

Supported search URLs

LinkedIn Classic: People, Companies, Posts, Jobs.

LinkedIn Sales Navigator: Leads (People), Accounts (Companies).

Result shape
The fields returned for each item vary with the search type and surface.

How search runs

One input item per execution. The node processes a single input item and waits, through a webhook, for the search to complete. Searches typically take a few minutes, depending on result size and LinkedIn pacing.

Searches are asynchronous. Periodix runs the search in the background and resumes your workflow once results are ready, so the node may stay active for several minutes before emitting results.

Each result becomes an item. When the search finishes, the node emits one workflow item per result.

Outreach operations

Connection requests: the note is optional and limited to 300 characters. Personalize it with an AI step before this node, for example from the post a lead engaged with.

Messages: direct messages work for 1st-degree connections and open profiles. An existing conversation is reused automatically.

InMail: enable InMail on the Message operation and add a subject. InMail requires Premium, Recruiter, or Sales Navigator on the connected profile. Use InMail → Get Balance before sending at scale.

Pacing: Periodix paces calls per profile automatically. For bulk outreach, also add a Wait node with a randomized delay between sends and start with low daily volumes on new or recently inactive accounts.

⚠️
Action failing?
If an operation fails because the profile is disconnected, reconnect it from the Profiles page in the Periodix Actions dashboard, then run the workflow again.
