Overview

The Periodix Actions node lets you run LinkedIn and Sales Navigator searches and enrichment inside n8n. Search by URL, enrich profiles and companies, and get structured data as workflow items. The node handles rate limiting, LinkedIn session management, and pacing automatically.

This is a verified n8n community node. The verification badge means the package has passed n8n's review process for quality and security.

One node instead of a scraper stack

f you have been combining multiple Apify actors or browser-extension scrapers to cover LinkedIn search, profile enrichment, and company data, the Periodix Actions node consolidates all of that into a single node.

Two ways to use it

Paste a URL directly. Copy any LinkedIn or Sales Navigator search URL from your browser and the node returns matching results.

Dynamic input from a previous node. The Search URL field accepts expressions, which means a previous node in your workflow can supply the URL. For example, your SDR team saves Sales Navigator search links to a Google Sheet or a Notion database. An earlier node reads those URLs row by row, passes each one to the Periodix LinkedIn Search node, and the results flow into the rest of your pipeline automatically. No one has to open n8n or paste anything manually.

This makes it easy to build workflows where lead research is fully automated: your team defines the searches, and n8n runs them on a schedule and delivers structured results to your CRM, enrichment tool, or outreach platform.

Sales Navigator included

Most LinkedIn automation nodes only support standard LinkedIn search. The Periodix LinkedIn Search node also supports Sales Navigator People and Company searches, using the same node and the same API key.

Built by Periodix
