Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
Can I export LinkedIn messages from the mobile app?
No. The official export only works in a web browser (computer recommended). Open the Download your data page, or go to Me → Settings & Privacy → Data privacy.
How long does LinkedIn take to prepare the archive?
Usually between 10 minutes and about 24 hours. LinkedIn emails you the download link when it is ready.
Should I unzip the file before importing to MonLivreSMS?
No. Drop the .zip as-is on MonLivreSMS. The archive must contain messages.csv. You pick the conversation after upload.
Does LinkedIn export photos and attachments?
No. LinkedIn Messages export is text only. The book includes the text of your conversations.
