If you would like to know the process on making this script, you can read about it here

Why?

LinkedIn allows you to export all of your connections' info into a csv, except for their emails. Additionally their API stopped allowing the extraction of emails around 2013-2014. Why don't we have access to our connections emails through their data export if we both agreed to share that info/data?

Installation

  • Clone this repo git clone https://github.com/FutoRicky/linkedin-email-extractor.git or download

How to Use

  • You will need the Connections.csv file that LinkedIn provides with the data export.

  • Wait for email extraction process to finish
  • An email.txt file will be generated with all the emails
