To automate Actions with Captain Data, you’ll need to create Identities. You have two options:

  1. Synchronize Your Own Users: Connect your existing users as identities
  2. Use Rented Accounts: Use our pre-configured accounts

Learn more about these options in our guide on When to Sync Identities vs. Use Rented LinkedIn Accounts.

Once you’ve created an Identity, connect them to platforms like LinkedIn using the Connect an Identity’s’ Integration endpoint.

Read everything you need to know about Adding & Managing Identities.

identity_login_links are secure, 48-hour valid URLs that let users connect their integration accounts (like LinkedIn) without a browser extension. Users authenticate through our white-labeled interface, and you can share these links via email or embed them in your product. Once connected, the integration is ready to use with our API.
