Export connections from LinkedIn

Last updated: 3 years ago
You can export a list of the connections you have on LinkedIn at any time.
To export LinkedIn connections:
  1. Click the Me icon at the top of your LinkedIn homepage.
  2. Select Settings & Privacy from the dropdown.

  3. Click Data privacy on the left pane.

  4. Under the How LinkedIn uses your data section, click Get a copy of your data.

  5. Select Want something in particular? Select the data files you’re most interested in.
  6. Select Connections.
  7. Click Request archive.
  8. Enter your password and click Done.
  9. You'll receive an email to your Primary Email address which will include a link where you can download your list of connections.
Notes:

  • When you’re exporting your connection data, you may notice that some of the email addresses are missing. You will only see email addresses for connections who have allowed their connections to see or download their email address.

  • The CSV and vCard formats don't support all characters. As a result, languages with extended character sets (such as Chinese, Japanese, or Hebrew) aren’t supported.
  • You currently can't export a list of your contacts that aren’t 1st-degree connections.

  • If you're exporting your connections because you have a duplicate account, remember to close your extra account and import your connections list to another LinkedIn account.
