Exporting Connections from LinkedIn

You can export a CSV file of your connections from the Contact Settings page on the LinkedIn desktop site.

Important: Only the contact's full name, email address, current employer, and position are exported.

To export LinkedIn connections:
- Click the My Network icon at the top of your LinkedIn homepage.
- Click Your connections on the left rail.
- Click Manage synced and imported contacts near the top right of the page.
- Under Advanced actions on the right rail, click Export contacts.
- You may be prompted to sign into your account.
- Click Request Archive.

You will receive an email to your Primary Email address which will include a link where you can download your list of connections.

Notes:
- The CSV and vCard formats don't support all characters. As a result, languages with extended character sets, such as Chinese, Japanese, or Hebrew are not supported.
- You can't currently export a list of your contacts that are not 1st-degree connections.

If you're exporting your connections because you have a duplicate account:
- Remember to close your extra account.
- To import your connections list to another LinkedIn account, make sure you've saved the file in a location you can find, and then follow the instructions for uploading contacts using a CSV file.

You can also download a list of your connections by requesting a download of your LinkedIn account data.
