The Cobalt Chrome Extension turns any LinkedIn profile page into a one-click import. Instead of copying names, job titles, and contact details by hand, you click the Cobalt icon, review what was captured, and add the candidate to your CRM in seconds. The extension is available with any Cobalt plan and requires only the Chrome browser. Connected extensions in Cobalt

​
What data is captured

The extension extracts everything visible on the LinkedIn profile and lets you enrich what isn’t:
  • Contact details — email address and phone number (optional enrichment, on click, after import)
  • Work experiences and dates — full employment history with company names and durations
  • Education and certifications — degrees, institutions, and professional certifications
  • Skills and keywords — the skills listed on the profile, ready for AI-powered matching in Cobalt
  • LinkedIn profile URL — stored on the candidate record for easy reference
Email and phone are not always visible on LinkedIn profiles. You can enrich them in one click after import, using Cobalt’s cascade enrichment engine. To learn more, see Enrichment.
Only import profiles for candidates you are actively considering. Cobalt imports one profile at a time based on your explicit action — no bulk automated scraping.
