LinkedIn Monitor, My Connections, and Added Profiles
Set up LinkedIn Monitor and Codex activity monitoring, browse your synced network and added profiles, and use Today for LinkedIn comment and DM drafts.

How these features fit together
Lumenbase combines three LinkedIn-related surfaces: activity monitoring, which writes posts and comments onto record timelines, My Connections for your full synced network, and Added Profiles for people captured through the extension who are not in your LinkedIn network. All of them rely on the browser extension and, for most workspaces, the LinkedIn Sync entitlement.
LinkedIn activity monitoring
When a Codex has Activity monitoring on, the extension polls LinkedIn for posts, articles, and shares from contacts on that Codex's lists. Each one is written to the contact's Activity timeline, so you can react to it without checking every profile by hand.
Where the activity shows up
- Contact or company timeline: open the record and use the LinkedIn timeline filter to isolate posts, shares, and messages.
- Feed: when monitored activity is worth acting on, it surfaces as a recommendation with a reply or comment draft.
Enable signals
Monitoring is scoped to contacts on lists linked to that Codex. Turn on Activity monitoring in Codex → Settings → LinkedIn (the switch is what enables syncing); keep those lists to a smaller set of people when you need fast, reliable polling. See Codex for how this ties to playbook structure and the workspace monitored-contact budget.
- Install and sign in to the Lumenbase extension (Chrome or Brave).
- Open Lists → Codexes and pick the Codex used by lists you want to monitor.
- In Codex settings, enable LinkedIn activity monitoring for that Codex.
- Open a monitored contact and filter the timeline to LinkedIn to confirm activity is arriving.
Replying
Drafts are meant to be reviewed and pasted into LinkedIn. The same interaction patterns apply in the Feed when LinkedIn comment or message opportunities appear.
My Connections (Private Connections)
Directory → My Connections lists people in your LinkedIn network that the extension has synced into Lumenbase. You can search, see when you connected, and link rows to CRM contacts. This is your full network view, including people not on active lists.
Path: /directory/private-connections. It is not on the sidebar; reach it from the LinkedIn integration settings or by opening the path directly.
- Requires LinkedIn Sync on your plan (upgrade messaging appears if the feature is not included).
- If sync is disabled in settings, connections will not update until you turn sync back on.
- You can stop syncing a single connection from the row menu without deleting the CRM contact.
Added Profiles (subscribed profiles)
Directory → Added Profiles shows LinkedIn profiles you added through the extension when those people are not part of your LinkedIn network. Use it to manage prospects you captured before a connection request was accepted.
Path: /directory/subscribed-profiles. Like My Connections, it is not on the sidebar; reach it from the LinkedIn integration settings or by opening the path directly.
LinkedIn comments and DMs in the Feed
In the Feed, when a recommendation is about LinkedIn outreach, you may see comment or direct message drafts. Open the suggestion dialog to review text, copy it, and complete the send on LinkedIn. Lumenbase does not post to LinkedIn on your behalf without that step.
After you address a LinkedIn communication recommendation, the Feed may hide that contact for a while so the stream stays focused on what still needs attention.
For channel setup and message sync into the CRM timeline, keep Integrating with LinkedIn open in another tab while you configure the extension.
