Released: Chrome Extension (version 2.1.1)

Happy Valentine's Day!   

Quick update from our Chrome team for Sidebar (version  2.1.1)

  1. Faster export processing of prospects from LinkedIn. We picked up some speed by randomizing our human-pattern between each profile that you export as well as performance gains in our Email API.
  2. Bug fix: The 'LinkedIn' source filter was not working properly on the Prospect List view
  3. Bug fix: The weekly limit error for connection requests was not displaying the correct 'reason' for the error. In many cases it was because a non-Premium account had reached their limit for personalized invites (meaning the limit of invites you can send with notes). This will now be displayed in the error dialog for clarity.
  4. Bug fix: Some random column values were not exporting using the Google Sheets option.

Updated: OpenAI Project API Keys Fully Supported

The backbone of our AI Sales Assistant's is our OpenAI integration connector. The original OpenAI integration was constructed around the original 'User API keys' from OpenAI. These keys were eventually replaced with more granular project-based API keys. OpenAI Project API Keys are now fully supported and can be utilized.

As a reminder, since there is greater control of permissions, so if you have any issues with our OpenAI Connector please consult your account Platform Logs to find any errors from OpenAI. It could be a permission issue.

Released: Chrome Extension (version 2.0.7)

 Happy New Year!       

We're getting 2025 started in a big way. I'm thrilled to announce a major update to our Chrome Extension - specifically focused on our LinkedIn engagement functionality. 

What's included?

Performance Improvements: Previous versions would demand high levels of memory from Chrome for larger exports, creating bottlenecks within the browser and poor performance system-wide. If you experienced this, you'll be quite satisfied with this update.

LinkedIn Actions Not Being Executed as Expected (Randomly): We received several reports of LinkedIn Invites or Messages displaying as successful, but not always being reflected inside of a LinkedIn account. This has been addressed in this release and was largely tied to our safety settings being too aggressive.

Exporting Post Comments and Reactions Improved: We received several reports of performance issues related to exporting posts, including random pauses and halts to the request. We rebuilt this object and logic and after some more user feedback, we plan to expand the limits as this version is much more performant.

Granular Control of Daily Limits: You can now set and customize your daily limits by specific LinkedIn action. We'll also randomize it each day (+/-) to create a human-like usage that isn't static each day.

LinkedIn Message Reply Detection: For any LinkedIn message action that originates from a Sequences, we'll always check for a reply to any previous messages (or Invites) before sending the message. If we detect a reply, we can automatically end a Sequence for your prospect. LinkedIn replies will be added to the Unified Inbox in Q1 2025.

View Profile is now optional on export: This LinkedIn engagement action is no longer required when you export a profile. You can optionally select it, but it will not be performed automatically unless you select the option in the LinkedIn Engagement menu (in the export drawer)
