Automated LinkedIn Profile Summaries with GPT-4o and Google Sheets

Quickly transform any LinkedIn profile URL into a concise, AI‑generated professional summary — perfect for recruiters, sales teams, and hiring managers who need instant insights into prospects or candidates without manual research.

How it works The workflow polls a Google Sheet for new or updated rows containing LinkedIn profile URLs. For each URL, the Real‑Time LinkedIn Scraper API (via RapidAPI) pulls experience and education sections. Extracted profile data is sent to OpenAI’s GPT model, which generates a clean, structured summary highlighting key strengths, career trajectory, and differentiators. The generated summary is written back into a new column in the same row of your Google Sheet for easy review and sharing.

Set up steps Connect your Google account and select the spreadsheet + worksheet containing your list of LinkedIn URLs. Sign up for the Real‑Time LinkedIn Scraper API on RapidAPI, copy your API key, and add it to the workflow’s HTTP Request node. Insert your OpenAI API key credentials. Ensure your Google Sheet has one column for “linkedin_url” and create two empty columns named “full_name” and "summary" (or customize them based on your needs). Run a single row through the workflow to verify scraping accuracy and summary formatting, then turn on the workflow for continuous automation.

With this template, eliminate hours of manual profile review — instantly gain actionable insights and focus on what really matters: building relationships and closing deals.
