Using Templates
You can use templates to send 1-on-1 messages, or to send messages in bulk.
Prerequisites
You will need some templates ready to go.
Using templates in a 1-on-1 message
When sending an individual connection request, message, or InMail, you can access your templates by clicking on Birdie's messaging icon.
Note: To access the Birdie icon when sending a connection request in LinkedIn, you will need to click on Add a note
and then click on the text box.
The templates that are shown will be specific to the type of message you are sending. For example, if you are sending a connection request, you will only see templates for connection requests.
After you've selected the template you want to use, type cmd + v
on macOS or ctrl + v
on Windows to paste the generated message into the text box. You can edit the message before sending.
