LinkedIn Company Data Extraction Automation - n8n Workflow

Sales Development Representatives needing enriched lead data for prospecting.
Market Researchers focused on competitor analysis and industry mapping.
Investors and Analysts requiring structured due diligence data.
Automation Specialists seeking robust n8n templates for advanced web data extraction and classification.

The challenge of modern B2B intelligence lies in converting unstructured public data (like a LinkedIn profile) into structured, actionable insights. This specialized n8n workflow solves this problem by utilizing the Airtop service to perform deep web extraction and classification.

Instead of manual research, this n8n automation provides a repeatable process to retrieve critical data points—such as employee count, detailed funding rounds, technical sophistication, and business classification (e.g., if the company is an automation agency)—all neatly formatted into a single JSON object. This robust n8n workflow can be initiated via a simple public web form n8n trigger or seamlessly integrated into a larger existing n8n automation, offering immense value for data enrichment and lead scoring projects.

This powerful n8n workflow is designed for flexible initiation and structured data delivery.

1. Trigger Activation: The process begins with one of two potential n8n trigger options: the built-in On form submission n8n trigger (via a public URL form) or the When Executed by Another Workflow n8n trigger, allowing it to function as a callable service.


2. Input Unification: The Unify Params n8n node ensures that regardless of which n8n trigger was used, the crucial inputs (companylinkedin URL and airtopprofile name) are correctly mapped and standardized for the subsequent steps in the n8n workflow.


3. Core Extraction: The Extract Company's information Airtop n8n node is the heart of this n8n template. It uses the authorized LinkedIn profile to navigate the target URL. It executes a complex extraction query based on a detailed prompt that instructs Airtop to analyze the LinkedIn page content and return structured data covering company identity, scale, detailed classification metrics, and funding information, adhering strictly to a predefined JSON schema.


4. Output Formatting: Finally, the Map output n8n node processes the successful Airtop response, isolating the structured JSON data (modelResponse) and making it the clean, final output of the n8n workflow, ready for use by other applications or subsequent n8n nodes.

To set up and run this specialized n8n workflow, follow these steps:

1. Import the n8n template: Copy the provided JSON definition and import it into your n8n instance via the Workflows section.


2. Airtop Credential Setup: This n8n workflow requires credentials for the Airtop n8n node. Obtain an Airtop API key. Create a new credential in your n8n setup and link it to the Extract Company's information n8n node.


3. Profile Authentication: Ensure you have a LinkedIn-authenticated Airtop Browser Profile configured, as this profile name must be provided as an input when executing the n8n workflow.


4. Deployment: Save and activate the n8n workflow. You can test it by accessing the public URL generated by the On form submission n8n trigger, or by manually running the workflow with test parameters.

On form submission (Form Trigger n8n trigger):
Function: Provides a public web form interface for non-technical users to start the n8n workflow by submitting a LinkedIn URL.
Key Configuration: Captures two required fields: Company's LinkedIn URL and Airtop Profile (connected to Linkedin).
When Executed by Another Workflow (Execute Workflow Trigger n8n trigger):
Function: Allows this n8n workflow to be called dynamically as a sub-workflow from any other automation or n8n node.
Key Configuration: Defines expected inputs: companylinkedin and airtopprofile.
Unify Params (Set n8n node):
Function: Standardizes the input data coming from either n8n trigger source, ensuring consistency using conditional expressions.
Key Configuration: Maps inputs to the standard variables: companylinkedin and airtopprofile.
Extract Company's information (Airtop n8n node):
Function: Performs the complex scraping and AI classification on the LinkedIn page.
Key Configuration: Uses extraction resource with query operation. The detailed Prompt and strict JSON Output Schema ensure highly structured analysis of scale, funding, and technical focus.
Map output (Set n8n node):
Function: Extracts and cleans the result, ensuring only the structured JSON data is returned as the final output of the n8n workflow.
* Key Configuration: Sets the raw output to {{ $json.data.modelResponse }}.
