The LinkedIn Event Creator automation allows you to automatically create LinkedIn events, helping you quickly set up events for networking, marketing, or community engagement. This tool is ideal for event organizers, marketers, and community managers aiming to save time on event creation while increasing visibility on LinkedIn. Follow this guide to configure the automation, with options to track created events in Google Sheets or CSV.

Magic Link: Sends a secure link to your email for easy login without needing to manage cookies.
Add Account: Connects directly using TexAu’s built-in browser extension for seamless setup.

Step 3: Set Up Event Details

Enter the details for the event you want to create on LinkedIn. Key information fields include:

Event Name: Give your event a clear, descriptive name.
Date & Time: Set the event’s start and end dates and times.
Description: Provide an engaging description that outlines what the event is about.
Location: Specify whether the event is Online or In-Person with a physical address if needed.

Step 4: Schedule the Automation (Optional)

To create events at regular intervals or a specific time, configure the Schedule settings. Click Schedule to set the start date and time, or choose a Recurrence Frequency if you need recurring events:

At Regular Intervals (e.g., daily or weekly)
Once
Every Day
On Specific Days of the Week (e.g., every Tuesday and Thursday)
On Specific Days of the Month (e.g., the 1st and 15th)
On Specific Dates (e.g., March 1)

Scheduling can be useful for setting up regular events or announcements without manual effort.

Screenshot Suggestion: Show the scheduling interface with options for selecting start time and recurrence frequency.

Step 5: Set an Iteration Delay (Optional)

To avoid LinkedIn’s rate limits, set an Iteration Delay to control the interval between each event creation. Configure Minimum Delay and Maximum Delay values to add variability, simulating natural activity. Adjust the delay in seconds, minutes, or hours as needed.

Screenshot Suggestion: Include a screenshot of the Iteration Delay settings, showing Minimum Delay, Maximum Delay, and time units.

Step 6: Choose Your Output Mode (Optional)

In Output Mode, select how you want to save and track data on the created events. Exporting data to Google Sheets or CSV file provides easy access and organization.

Export Options: Choose Google Sheets or CSV file as your output destination. Link your Google account if you select Google Sheets, enabling a direct export to Google Drive.
Output Management:
- Append (Default): Adds each new event to the end of the existing file, creating a comprehensive list of created events.
- Split: Each run generates a new file, helpful for tracking event creation by session.
- Overwrite: Replaces previous data with the latest list, ideal if you’re only interested in recent events.
Duplicate Management: Enable Deduplicate to automatically remove duplicate entries, keeping your data organized.

Tip: Exporting to Google Sheets is ideal for collaborative event planning and tracking engagement.

Screenshot Suggestion: Show the output mode options screen with Google Sheets, CSV, and Deduplicate options highlighted.

Step 7: Run the Automation on Cloud or Desktop

Once configurations are complete, click Run to start the automation. Choose to run on Cloud or Desktop mode:

Cloud: Runs the automation on TexAu’s servers, ideal for hands-free operation.
Desktop: Run locally on your device if you prefer using your IP address, which can help simulate manual activity.

Tip: Running automations on Desktop mode saves cloud runtime costs and provides more control over task execution.

Screenshot Suggestion: Show the Run button with Cloud and Desktop options visible.

Step 8: Access the Data from the Data Store

After the automation completes, go to the Data Store section in TexAu to access data on the events created. Locate the LinkedIn Event Creator automation and click See Data to view or download the results.

Screenshot Suggestion: Display the Data Store screen with the “See Data” button highlighted.

The LinkedIn Event Creator automation makes it simple to set up LinkedIn events, helping marketers, recruiters, and community managers save time on event creation and maximize event visibility. With scheduling, flexible event details, and export to Google Sheets or CSV, this tool organizes event data for effective tracking and engagement planning.
