User Leverages Enhanced LinkedIn Profile Import Experience

Enables you to import talent profile information from LinkedIn.

Provides a simplified approach by reducing the number of clicks. Items being imported are segregated into two types based on whether they are ready for import or require to be reviewed. You can easily import any data that do not require correction or of specific choice among several available without any intervention.

Tips And Considerations

  • The LinkedIn section is not shown as a source if it contains no data. It also doesn’t appear if the corresponding content section is missing from the target talent profile or if the LinkedIn import check box is not selected in the Profile Types setup for person profiles.
  • If multiple content sections are enabled for LinkedIn import and an item applies to more than one, the content section highest level in alphabetical order is assigned as the default target. You can change the target content section before importing. To minimize clicks, we recommend enabling only one content section per template for LinkedIn import.
  • You can also include guided journey to the page.
  • The item being imported is moved to the Needs Review page if one of the following conditions are met:
    • Item isn't part of the item catalog. You can choose an item that is part of an item catalog.
    • If multiple content sections are enabled for LinkedIn import and the item applies to more than one, then you need to select a target content section for it to be ready for import. We recommend that you enable only one content section per template for LinkedIn import to reduce the number of clicks.
    • Supporting attributes (DFF) that are set as required in the profile type setup are not available.
    • Duplicate item is being imported. If two duplicate items are being imported from LinkedIn, you can choose to import both or either of them. If the item being imported is a duplicate of an item already existing in the talent profile, you can choose to update the already existing one or maintain them as two separate entries.
