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.
