Running your first scan
How to add contacts and run your first LinkedIn profile scan with Hiroo.
Running Your First Scan
After installing the extension and logging in, you're ready to start tracking LinkedIn profiles.
Adding contacts
There are two ways to add contacts:
- From a LinkedIn profile — Visit any LinkedIn profile and click the Hiroo button that appears on the page.
- From a company page — Go to a LinkedIn company page and use "Fetch Employees" to import multiple contacts at once.
Starting a scan
Go to your Hiroo dashboard and click "Start Scan" in Settings. The extension will visit each contact's LinkedIn profile and check for changes.
What happens during a scan
- The extension opens LinkedIn profiles in the background
- It compares current data with the last known state
- Any changes (title, company, end date) are recorded and shown in your dashboard
- You can monitor scan progress in real-time
Tip: Keep your Chrome browser open during the scan. The extension needs an active browser to visit LinkedIn pages.
