The Salesforce Chrome extension for LinkedIn prospecting
Open any LinkedIn profile and see whether the person is already in Salesforce, with their notes, tasks, and history. New prospect? One click creates the Lead or Contact, with the Account and custom fields filled in. No tab switching, no copy-paste, no Sales Navigator seat.
How the setup works
Install the extension
Add Ln2CRM from the Chrome Web Store. The extension opens as a sidebar on LinkedIn profile and company pages.
Connect Salesforce
Sign in through Salesforce's own OAuth 2.0 flow with PKCE. Ln2CRM never sees your password, and you can revoke access from Salesforce at any time.
Pick where the LinkedIn URL lives
Ln2CRM stores the profile URL in a Salesforce field you pick from a dropdown. Any existing field works, no new objects needed, and it becomes your dedupe key.
Choose Lead or Contact
Decide how new people land in Salesforce: as Leads for a classic qualification flow, or straight as Contacts. One switch in Settings, changeable anytime.
Keep or hide the on-page badges
The green check and red cross on profiles are on by default. Leave them on for fast triage, or switch them off in Settings if you prefer a clean page.
Optional: plug in enrichment
Have a FullEnrich, Hunter, or Apollo key? Add it in Settings and the sparkle icon fills missing emails and phones. You pay your provider directly, Ln2CRM adds no markup.
Prospect
Open any LinkedIn profile. The extension shows the Salesforce match with notes and tasks, or offers to create the record in one click.
Manage without leaving LinkedIn
From then on, search, link, update, and log your Salesforce records straight from the sidebar. Your CRM lives inside LinkedIn, no tab switching.
Add a person to Salesforce in one click
Open a LinkedIn profile and hit + Person. Ln2CRM reads the page and builds a prefilled card, so you confirm data instead of typing it. Add a note, save, and the record lands in Salesforce with the LinkedIn URL attached.
Name, job title, location, and the LinkedIn URL are pulled in automatically. Nothing to copy-paste.
New people land as whichever you chose in setup, and the Account is created or linked in the same click.
Type the company name or paste its Salesforce ID, and the person attaches to that existing Account instead of a duplicate.
Add them by hand, or click the sparkle to pull them in with your own enrichment key.
Manage the record without opening Salesforce
The Manage tab turns the LinkedIn page into a working Salesforce view. Search any person, company, or deal, link the profile to the record, and see everything your team knows before you write a word.
Search by name or ID and link the profile to the matching Lead or Contact once, so it stays recognized.
Open tasks, past touches, and the full note timeline sit next to the profile, so you never double-message or forget a promise.
Add a note, schedule the next task, or change fields right from the panel. Twenty seconds, and the record stays current.
Spot who is already in Salesforce while you scroll
You do not even need to open the panel. Ln2CRM marks profiles, company pages, and conversations right on the page, so you triage a whole list of results in seconds.
The person is already a Lead or Contact. Click the badge to open their record and history.
Nobody on your team has captured them yet, so you see at a glance who is worth adding.
What lands where in Salesforce
Here is exactly how the LinkedIn data maps to standard Salesforce objects and fields. You confirm the mapping once during setup, and the LinkedIn URL becomes your dedupe key.
| From the LinkedIn page | Salesforce object | Field |
|---|---|---|
| Full name | Lead or Contact | FirstName, LastName |
| Current role | Lead or Contact | Title |
| Company | Lead or Account | Company / Account.Name |
| Location | Lead or Contact | City, Country |
| Profile URL | Lead or Contact | Any field you pick from a dropdown, used for duplicate matching |
| Company page URL | Account | Any field you pick from a dropdown |
| Email and phone | Lead or Contact | Email, Phone (manual or via your own enrichment key) |
| Your notes | Lead, Contact, or Opportunity | Note attached to the record |
| Follow-up | Task | Subject, ActivityDate, linked to the record |
Supported objects: Lead, Contact, Account, Opportunity, Task, Event, and EmailMessage. Works with Salesforce editions that include API access (Enterprise, Unlimited, Developer, or Professional with the API add-on).
For Salesforce admins
Ln2CRM connects to your org over standard OAuth, acts only as the signed in user, and never stores your Salesforce data. Here is what your security team needs to sign off, and how to approve it in advance if your org restricts connected apps.
Users connect through the standard Salesforce login and consent screen. We keep a scoped, revocable token, never a password. Revoke it anytime in Setup and the connection stops immediately.
Reads and writes Lead, Contact, Account, Opportunity, Task, Event, and EmailMessage, only as the connecting user and within that user's own permissions. It cannot see or change anything the user cannot.
Nothing runs in the background. The extension reads a profile only when the user opens it, and writes only when the user clicks Save. No mass export, no scraping of pages nobody opened.
Records are created and updated directly in your Salesforce. Ln2CRM does not sell a contact database and does not copy your CRM into a separate store.
Approve it once in Salesforce Setup: allowlist the Ln2CRM connected app (Connected Apps OAuth Usage, or Manage Connected Apps), set Permitted Users to “Admin approved users are pre-authorized”, and assign the Profiles or Permission Sets that should have access. After that, approved reps connect with a single click and no extra prompts.
