# Setting Up LinkedIn Integration

Some of Saber's most powerful features leverage your LinkedIn and Sales Navigator access to provide contact-level research and discovery. The Saber Chrome Extension enables these capabilities by securely connecting your professional network to the API.

**⚡ Pro tip:** The more users in your organization who install and connect the extension, the better your API's performance and data coverage will be.

***

#### What This Enables

Installing and connecting the Chrome Extension unlocks:

* **Contact Search** - Find contacts at companies using Sales Navigator's filters (job titles, keywords, locations)
* **Contact Signals** - Generate AI-powered insights about individual contacts from their LinkedIn profiles
* **Enhanced Contact Research** - Enrich contact records with verified professional information
* **Deeper Company Data** - Access more detailed company information through LinkedIn's network

Without the extension, these endpoints will return errors directing you to install it.

***

#### Prerequisites

Before installing the Chrome Extension:

1. **Active LinkedIn account** - A standard LinkedIn account
2. **Sales Navigator subscription** (recommended) - Required for contact search features. Basic LinkedIn access enables contact signals but with limited data.
3. **Saber account** - Log in at [ai.saber.app](https://ai.saber.app)
4. **Chrome browser** - Currently supports Chrome/Chromium-based browsers

***

#### Installation Steps

1. **Install the extension** from the Chrome Web Store:

   [Saber Chrome Extension](https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/saber-sales-signals-and-i/hekbghpjfchhcbgmebbnohennnjlhmmp)
2. **Click "Add to Chrome"** and confirm installation
3. **Pin the extension** (optional but recommended):
   * Click the puzzle icon in Chrome's toolbar
   * Find "Saber" and click the pin icon
4. **Log in to Saber** in the extension:
   * Click the Saber extension icon
   * Sign in with your Saber credentials

***

#### Connecting Your LinkedIn Account

After installing the extension:

1. **Visit LinkedIn** - Navigate to [linkedin.com](https://linkedin.com) and ensure you're logged in
2. **Open the Saber extension** while on LinkedIn
3. **Click "Connect LinkedIn Account"** - The extension will detect your LinkedIn session
4. **Verify connection** - You should see a success message and "Connected" status

**For Sales Navigator access:**

1. Visit [linkedin.com/sales](https://linkedin.com/sales) and verify you can access Sales Navigator
2. Return to the Saber extension and refresh the connection
3. The extension will automatically detect your Sales Navigator subscription

Your LinkedIn credentials are used only to authenticate API requests and are never stored by Saber. The extension operates as a secure bridge between LinkedIn and the Saber API.

**🏢 Team usage:** We recommend having multiple team members install and connect the extension. This improves reliability, data freshness, and API performance for your entire organization.

#### What You Can Do Now

With LinkedIn integration active, you can use these API endpoints:

**Contact Search** - `/v1/contacts/search`

```bash
curl -X POST https://api.saber.app/v1/contacts/search \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "companyLinkedInUrls": ["https://linkedin.com/company/stripe"],
    "jobTitles": ["VP of Sales", "Head of Sales"],
    "countries": ["US"]
  }'
```

**Contact Signals** - `/v1/contacts/signals/sync`

```bash
curl -X POST https://api.saber.app/v1/contacts/signals/sync \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "contactProfileUrl": "https://linkedin.com/in/patrickcollison",
    "question": "Is this person actively posting about payments or fintech?",
    "answerType": "boolean"
  }'
```

See the full endpoint documentation below for all available parameters and options.

#### Troubleshooting
