Rate Limits

LinkedIn enforces activity limits. Stay under:

• Posts: 2-3 per day max
• Comments: 20-30 per day
• Connection requests: 100 per week
• Profile views: Natural browsing pace

Troubleshooting

• Login required: Ensure browser profile has active LinkedIn session
• Rate limited: Reduce activity, wait 24h
• Selector not found: LinkedIn may have updated UI, check selectors
