Email to LinkedIn Finder in Google Sheets
A column of email addresses in, LinkedIn profile URLs out, without leaving the spreadsheet. 5 credits per lookup
- Install the add-on from the Google Workspace Marketplace. It is free; lookups spend LinkFinder credits.
- Paste your API key once, from your LinkFinder account. Free credits on signup, no card.
- Open the side panel (Extensions → LinkFinder AI) and choose Find LinkedIn URL from Email.
- Point it at the column of email addresses and run. The result lands in the next empty column.
Or as a formula
Drag it down the column. The custom function comes from a short Apps Script you paste once; the script and setup are here.
Side panel or formula?
The side panel processes each row once, skips rows that are already filled, and paces itself against the rate limit. That makes it the right choice for hundreds or thousands of rows.
A =LINKFINDER() formula is handy for a few rows, but Google Sheets can recalculate custom functions on its own, which re-spends credits and can hit the script time limit on a large sheet. Use it for a sample, then switch to the panel.
What comes back
A new column with the linkedin url. Rows where nothing was found stay empty rather than getting a guess, so a filter on the new column gives you the misses to re-run.
Work addresses match far better than personal ones: the domain names the employer, and the employer plus the local part narrows to one person. Gmail and Outlook addresses still resolve, but expect more blanks.
Three ways to run the same lookup
The panel and the formula call the same API as the bulk CSV upload and the Email to LinkedIn Finder API, and cost the same credits. Pick whichever is closest to where your list already lives.
