Workflow Action - Follow User

Following a prospect before you connect is one of the oldest warm-up plays on LinkedIn — and it's now a workflow action. Follow User follows any LinkedIn user from your connected account, using a Provider ID from a search step, a profile lookup, or straight from a trigger payload.

— Daniel Marr

What's New

  • New workflow action that follows a specified LinkedIn user from the connected account
  • Takes a single input — Provider ID — sourced from Search User, Retrieve User Profile, or directly from triggers like New Follower and New Post Comment
  • Returns a simple confirmation once the follow completes

Why It Matters

  • Warm up a prospect before sending a connection request — your name shows up in their notifications first
  • Follow back new followers or engaged commenters automatically, as a low-friction show of interest
  • Build familiarity ahead of a bigger outreach campaign, so requests don't land cold
