Discussion on: Accepting Linkedin invitations through javascript

[robgpeak]

Yes that is correct. It used to be possible to select all the invitation sent and hit the withdrawal button once but they've changed the way they do it on LinkedIn, and now you need to do it one at a time, but it takes too long. That's why I'd like to see a script to do it.

[Sunil Aleti]

var x = document.getElementsByClassName("invitation-card_action-btn artdeco-button artdeco-button--muted artdeco-button--3 artdeco-button--tertiary ember-view")
var y = document.getElementsByClassName("artdeco-modal_confirm-dialog-btn artdeco-button artdeco-button--2 artdeco-button--primary ember-view")
for(var i=0;i<x.length;i++){
x[i].click();
for(var j=0;j<y.length;j++){
y[j].click();
}
}

p.s: If you withdraw an invitation, you won't able to resend for up to 3 weeks

Please check and let me know bcoz I dont have multiple invitations to withdraw and check it

This is going to sound really dumb, but how do I even get this script to work 😀

I'm guessing I have to put it someone in here (image attached) to get it to run? Does not look like the image uploaded... Meaning I would have to go to the page linkedin.com/mynetwork/invitation-... and view the inspector (i'm in Chrome), and then put the javascript somewhere in there?

Any thoughts on this Sunil? Meaning how I would get that script to do what I want it to do? I am NOT a programmer or developer... Just a mere mortal trying to solve an issue 😊

open the page where u withdraw invitations and open console and paste the above code

Hi Sunil, I do appreciate you trying to help me. Here is what happens when I paste the script in the console... loom.com/share/7c020e858da04ca78d9...

Let me know if u have any queries

I really have no idea how to get it to work? Any chance you use skype or some other screen sharing service where we could connect and I could share my screen and you can walk me through it? My skype name is robg888
