It is ideal for prospecting, recruitment, lead generation, and workflows where structured people-search results from LinkedIn are needed.\n\n**How it Works**\n\n1. The workflow is triggered manually or by another automation.\n2. Search inputs such as name, role, keywords, or location are sent to TexAU\u2019s People Search automation.\n3. TexAU starts a background job that executes the search on LinkedIn.\n4. The workflow waits a short period to allow TexAU to finish processing.\n5. It then polls TexAU\u2019s results endpoint and retrieves the completed dataset.\n6. The workflow outputs a structured list of matching profiles, typically including name, headline, job title, profile URL, and relevance indicators.\n\n**Setup Steps**\n\n* Add your TexAU API key to the HTTP Request node.\n* Supply search parameters manually or dynamically.\n* Adjust wait time based on TexAU\u2019s queue load.\n* Route results to your CRM, AI agent, or lead pipeline.\n\n**Good to Know**\nSearch results depend on publicly visible LinkedIn data. TexAU processing time varies by query complexity.\n"
