How to use the LinkedIn Event Guests Export
PhantomBuster’s LinkedIn Event Guests Export Automation lets you extract attendee lists from LinkedIn Events efficiently. This tutorial covers the essential steps to set up, launch, and retrieve your event guest data.
Prerequisites: You must have clicked "Attend" or "Join" on the LinkedIn Event to access and export its guest list.
Input requirements: Provide direct LinkedIn Event URLs. Company or profile URLs will not work.
Extraction limits: LinkedIn allows extracting only the first 1,000 attendees per event.
Data output: This Phantom exports basic profile data (name, job title, location, profile URL). For emails or enriched data, use a dedicated profile scraper.
Safety recommendations: Process 50–200 profiles per launch to respect LinkedIn safety limits.
Free plan limitations: CSV exports are limited to the first 10 rows, and JSON/direct download links are unavailable.
Resources: Uses 1 slot while running; estimated execution time is ~1 minute per 50 guests.
Join the LinkedIn event(s): Open each LinkedIn Event you plan to export and click Join/Attend to ensure you have access to the attendee list.
Connect your LinkedIn account: Install the PhantomBuster browser extension to connect your session automatically, or manually enter your session cookie if not using Chrome or Firefox.
Keep your browser updated to prevent your LinkedIn session cookie from expiring quickly.
Provide event URLs as input: Add a single LinkedIn Event URL, a Google Sheet (shared with "Anyone with the link"), or a publicly accessible CSV file.
If using a spreadsheet, the Phantom reads column A by default; to use another column, specify the header name found in row 1.
Configure scraping limits: Set the number of profiles to scrape per launch (default 100) and profiles per event (default 1000). Define how many spreadsheet rows to process per launch if using multiple inputs.
Do not leave the "spreadsheet rows to process" field blank for large lists, as processing all events at once may cause timeout issues.
Optional: Advanced options: Enable "Remove duplicate profiles" to keep your data clean, or use Watcher mode to monitor for new attendees.
Watcher mode works only with a single event URL. To monitor multiple events, create a separate Phantom for each.
Select the launch frequency: Choose to launch manually, schedule a one-time run, set a recurring schedule, or trigger the Phantom after another Automation finishes.
Launch and retrieve results: Click Launch and wait for the run to finish. View the extracted data in the Results tab or download it as a CSV or JSON file.
