How to use the LinkedIn Post Likers Export
PhantomBuster’s LinkedIn Post Likers Export Automation lets you extract the profiles of users who liked specific LinkedIn posts. This tutorial outlines the essential steps to set up and launch the Automation efficiently.
Extraction limit: LinkedIn only displays up to 3,000 likers per post; the Phantom cannot extract beyond this limit.
Input requirements: Google Sheets must be shared with "Anyone with the link," and CSV files must be publicly accessible (paid plans only).
Free plan limitations: Exports are limited to the first 10 rows (CSV only); dynamic CSV links, JSON exports, and CSV input uploads are unavailable.
Performance: Estimated processing time is 25 seconds per 900 likers; uses 1 execution slot per run.
Compatibility: This Phantom does not send data to the LinkedIn Leads page.
Connect your LinkedIn account: Install the PhantomBuster browser extension and connect your LinkedIn session in one click, or retrieve your session cookie manually if not using Chrome or Firefox.
Keep your browser updated; outdated versions can cause session cookies to expire faster, requiring frequent reconnection.
Provide LinkedIn post URLs: Paste a single post URL, or provide a Google Sheet or publicly accessible CSV containing a list of post URLs.
The Phantom uses the first column (A) by default; enter the exact column header name if your URLs are located elsewhere.
Control how many posts are processed: Optionally enable duplicate removal or Watcher mode, and set the number of posts to process per launch (leave empty to process all).
Running too many posts in one launch may force frequent session cookie refreshes.
Configure result file settings (optional): Set a custom results file name or list specific fields to keep in the final output.
Renaming the results file between launches creates a new file and restarts processing from the first input.
Select launch frequency:
Choose to launch manually, schedule a one-time or recurring run, or trigger the Phantom after another Automation finishes.
Adjust advanced settings (optional):
Leave defaults unless needed; you can fine-tune execution limits, retries, notifications, proxies, and file management.
Launch and retrieve results: Click Launch to start, then review the collected data in the Results tab to download as CSV/JSON or export to Google Sheets.
Output fields include: profileLink, name, firstName, lastName, occupation, degree, reactionType, and companyUrl.

Give the URLs of the LinkedIn posts you're interested in + your comments
Create a spreadsheet with Google Sheets. Give column A a title, e.g. "toComment". Copy the LinkedIn post URLs and paste them into this column - one URL per row.
Give column B a title, e.g. "message", and write the comments you would like to post for each corresponding post.

Make this spreadsheet public so PhantomBuster can access it.

Copy the spreadsheet URL and paste it into your Phantom's setup.
Under "Spreadsheet settings", tell the Phantom which columns contain your post URLs and comments by filling in the titles for each. Make sure to type them exactly as they appear in your spreadsheet - this field is case-sensitive!
Take note: Emojis in comments are not supported yet!
Specify the number of posts to process per launch
Tell the Phantom how many posts you would like it to process each time it launches.
It's always best to follow the recommendations given and not process too many at once in order to keep your account safe.
If the Phantom does not process all of the posts in your input spreadsheet during a launch, it will pick up from where it left off in the next launch.
Post comments at random
Checking the "Post random comments" will allow you to write a list of comments in the "comments" column in your spreadsheet, and have the Phantom choose one to post at random for each post that it processes.
This means you do not need to write a corresponding comment for each post you'd like to auto comment on, nor do you need to write a full list of comments - just a few to rotate.
Set the Phantom on repeat
Automation always produces better results in the long run. Set the Phantom to launch repeatedly and get results while you're away!
This Phantom runs from the cloud, which means you don't even need to have your browser open or computer on for these launches to happen.
