Setting up triggers
The LinkedIn Integration offers powerful trigger capabilities that can initiate your AI agents based on specific LinkedIn events. This allows your agents to respond automatically to important network activities.Available LinkedIn triggers
Set up your agents to start working when:- All messages received - Triggers when any message is received on LinkedIn
- Outreach replies only - Triggers only when replies to outreach messages are received
Connection accept notifications are only tracked if the connection request was originally sent through Relevance AI’s LinkedIn integration. This is a technical limitation of the LinkedIn integration.
How to set up a LinkedIn trigger
The setup process differs slightly depending on whether you’re configuring a trigger for an agent or a workforce. Follow the instructions below based on your use case.For Agents
