Scraper #7: Enrich Any Lead List with LinkedIn Profiles Automatically

Subtitle: You scraped 500 leads. Now find their LinkedIn URLs, websites, and emails -without doing it by hand.

Day 7. The final scraper. And honestly, this one might be the most universally useful.

You’ve spent this week scraping leads from Luma, Meetup, LinkedIn, and Instagram. You have names, maybe companies, maybe usernames. But you need LinkedIn URLs, websites, and emails before you can actually do anything useful with them.

That’s what this workflow does.

The workflow:

Take any Google Sheet with lead data. The more columns the better — name, company, position. Connect it to Needle’s enrichment template and run.

The AI agent iterates over each row. For each lead, it searches LinkedIn and runs a web search to find the right profile. It writes back the LinkedIn URL, website, and a confidence score — so you know how reliable the match is.

The more data you give, the better it works:

Just a name? It’ll try, but confidence will be low. Name + company + position? Much higher match rate. Name + company + position + location? Almost guaranteed.

If a human wouldn’t be able to find the profile with a Google search and LinkedIn search, the agent won’t either. But for the vast majority of leads with reasonable data, it works surprisingly well.

What you can customize:

The default template finds LinkedIn URLs and websites. But you can adjust the prompt to prioritize finding emails, or plug in tools like Hunter.io for email discovery. The workflow is flexible — make it find whatever data you need.

When to use it:

As the final step after any of the 6 scrapers from this week. Or with any lead list you already have - CRM exports, event registrations, conference badge scans, manual lists. Anything where you have names but need contact details.


That’s the series.

7 scrapers. 7 days. Free templates for all of them.

Here’s what we covered:

  1. Luma Event Attendees — scrape guests from any event

  2. Meetup Event Attendees — same concept, different platform

  3. LinkedIn Competitor Audience — find who engages with competitor posts

  4. LinkedIn Search Export — export any people search to Sheets

  5. LinkedIn Viral Post Likes — scrape reactions from any post

  6. Instagram Followers — export followers from any account

  7. Lead Enrichment — find LinkedIn profiles and emails for any list

The general pattern is always the same: browser DevTools → copy a network request → paste into Needle → run. Five minutes to set up, then it runs on autopilot.

If you build something creative with these or come up with ideas for new scrapers, I’d love to hear about it. Hit reply or reach out on LinkedIn.

Happy scraping. Happy automation.
