Is my contact list uploaded anywhere?

No. The conversion runs in your web browser. Your connections' names and emails never leave your computer.

How do I download my LinkedIn connections?

In LinkedIn, open Settings & Privacy, choose Data privacy, then Get a copy of your data. Pick Connections (it arrives faster than the full archive), request it, and LinkedIn emails you a link. Inside the download is a file called Connections.csv.

Why are so many email addresses missing?

LinkedIn only includes a connection's email address if that person allows their connections to download it, and many people don't. Those contacts still get their name, company, position and profile link. Tick "Only people with an email address" to leave them out.

How do I add the contacts to my iPhone?

Email the .vcf file to yourself or save it to Files, open it on the iPhone and tap Add All Contacts. Apple Contacts on a Mac can import it with File > Import.

How do I add them to Google Contacts or Android?

Go to contacts.google.com, click Import, and choose the .vcf file. Google lets you put them under a label, and they then sync to Android phones signed in to the same account.

Can I import the file into Outlook?

Outlook handles files with many contacts in them less reliably than phones and Google do, and may only take the first one. Importing into Google Contacts or your phone and syncing from there is usually easier.

How to get your LinkedIn connections into your contacts

Request your connections from LinkedIn: Settings & Privacy > Data privacy > Get a copy of your data, then choose Connections.
Download the archive from LinkedIn's email and find Connections.csv inside.
Drop Connections.csv into the box above. The columns are matched automatically.
Download the .vcf file and open it on your phone, or import it into Google or Apple Contacts.

What's in LinkedIn's Connections.csv

The file starts with a few lines of notes from LinkedIn, then one row per connection:

First Name	Last Name	URL	Email Address	Company	Position	Connected On
Amara	Okonkwo	linkedin.com/in/...	amara@example.com	Brightline Health	Director of Operations	03 Oct 2026

The converter skips the notes, finds the header row and maps each column to the matching contact field.

What each contact gets

Name, company and job title, in the fields your phone uses for them.
Email address, when LinkedIn included one.
LinkedIn profile link, so you can tap through to the profile from your phone.
A note saying when you connected, which helps when you can't remember how you know someone.
A "LinkedIn" label, so the imported contacts are easy to find, filter or remove later.

Before you import

Duplicates. If some connections are already in your contacts, your phone or Google may create a second card. Google Contacts has a Merge & fix tool that combines them.
Try a few first. Hundreds of contacts are tedious to remove by hand. The LinkedIn label makes it easier, but importing a small test file first is wise.
Other CSV files. Any contact spreadsheet with name and email columns works too. Choose the right columns in step 2.

Sample file
