# Extract LinkedIn Connections Schedule
> Schedule extraction of your LinkedIn connections at a specific time or on a recurring basis.
No credits required when executed with an Engagement Identity. Set type: "engagement" when creating an Identity via API.
To run LinkedIn actions, you must first create an identity and connect a LinkedIn
account, either using our [Chrome
Extension](https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/edges-labs/bippgnolleoecnhaninlfmdapbakklpf),
[username/password login](/v1/api/linkedin/authentication), or [Managed
Accounts](/v1/identities/sync-vs-managed) for a hassle-free setup.
Async action calls automatically handle pagination through the `X-AUTO-PAGINATE` header, iterating over all pages of results and sending batches to your callback URL.
You can limit the total number of results with the `parameters.max_results` param (see "Body" section).
**Incremental Sync supported.** This action supports `sync_mode: "incremental"` in the `parameters` object. Requires an [Engagement Identity](/v1/identities/engagement).
* The first iteration performs a **full sync** (limited by `max_results`).
* Each subsequent scheduled iteration automatically returns **only new data** since the last retrieval.
* If the previous run is still in progress when the next iteration triggers, that iteration will be **skipped**.
* See the [Incremental Sync guide](/v1/runs/overview#incremental-sync-mode) for details and limitations.
**Callback Delivery**: Both `async` and `schedule` modes deliver results via the callback URL provided in your request.
**Consistent Format**: All execution modes use the same action logic, so inputs and results are identical regardless of mode.
**Error Handling**: Errors follow the [standard API error format](/v1/faq-troubleshooting#troubleshooting-errors).
Using `async` and `schedule` modes, you have to implement some kind of callback management. Be sure to check the [Managing Callbacks](/v1/runs/callbacks) guide to better understand how it works and what your can do.
