Overview

The Periodix Actions node brings LinkedIn and Sales Navigator search, enrichment, engagement extraction, and outreach into your n8n workflows. In the n8n nodes panel and on n8n.io it is listed as Periodix LinkedIn. Search by URL, enrich profiles and companies, pull post reactions and comments, send connection requests, messages, and InMail, and get structured data back 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. It works on n8n Cloud and self-hosted.

One node instead of a scraper stack

If you have been combining multiple Apify actors or browser-extension scrapers to cover LinkedIn search, profile enrichment, company data, and post engagement, the Periodix Actions node consolidates all of that into a single node and adds outreach on top. Periodix Actions connects through LinkedIn's own infrastructure: no cookies stored in n8n, no CAPTCHA, and no scraper fingerprint.

What you can do

Search LinkedIn by URL: People, Companies, Posts, and Jobs on LinkedIn Classic; Leads and Accounts on Sales Navigator.
Enrich profiles and companies: full structured data for any LinkedIn profile or company URL (experience, skills, education, industry, headcount, specializations).
Extract post engagement: reactions and comments on any LinkedIn post with full author details and full comment text.
Get post history: recent posts by any person or company for outreach personalization.
Access your network: list 1st-degree connections with profile details.
Send connection requests: with a personalized note of up to 300 characters.
Send messages and InMail: direct messages to connections and open profiles, and InMail (requires Premium, Recruiter, or Sales Navigator). Check your InMail balance before sending at scale.
Sequences: coming soon to the n8n node. Available today via MCP and REST API.

Two ways to feed searches

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, so 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 Actions 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 and outreach are fully automated: your team defines the searches, and n8n runs them on a schedule and delivers structured results to your CRM, spreadsheet, or AI scoring step.

Sales Navigator included

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

How it works

Connect accounts safely: link LinkedIn accounts through the Periodix Actions dashboard. No cookies or credentials are stored in n8n.
Stay within limits: Periodix paces calls per profile automatically.
Run asynchronously: searches run in the background and resume your workflow via webhook.
