linkiq commands

Gather profiles: gather

This command gathers profiles of those who viewed your profile and those who reacted to your posts. The profile viewers are for last 14 days and reactions are for posts from last 7 days.

Campaign: camp

Campaign lets you define which profiles are of interest. You create a campaign with a name and specify the criteria to qualify the profile. The qualification criteria can be based on:

• include_keywords, include profile if any keyword is found in name/title/company of the profile
• exclude_keywords, exclude profile if any of the keyword is found in name/title/company of the profile If you leave these empty that means any profile is qualified.

For a campaign you can specify the message to send to qualified leads:

• connect_message, the message to send along with connection request
• first_message, the message to send if the qualified lead is already connected

So your campaign has - name, include/exclude_keywords, and connect/first_message.
