LinkedIn + Copilot integration
Connect LinkedIn to Copilot
ConnectChats brings your LinkedIn chats into Copilot. Ask Copilot to catch you up, find any message and draft replies. Nothing gets sent until you approve it.
Free to start. No app to install. Every send needs your OK.
What Copilot can do with your LinkedIn
ConnectChats gives Copilot a small set of tools. Copilot calls them when you ask about your LinkedIn chats, and only for the chats you share.
-
Catch you up
Ask what you missed and Copilot reads your unread LinkedIn chats, then gives you the short version: who needs an answer, what was decided, what can wait.
get_messages_to_summarize -
Find any message
The address someone sent last month, the price a client agreed to, the link from a group chat. Copilot searches your LinkedIn history and quotes the message.
search_messages -
Draft replies
Copilot writes the reply in your tone, in the chat's language, with the context of the whole thread. You read it, edit it, and send it.
draft_reply -
Send with your OK
When you approve a draft, ConnectChats sends it from your own LinkedIn account and confirms delivery. Auto-send only runs in chats where you switch it on.

How to connect LinkedIn to Copilot
It takes about two minutes. You do it once, and the same account then works in every AI app you add.
-
Add ConnectChats to Copilot
- In VS Code, open the Command Palette, run MCP: Add Server, choose HTTP and paste https://api.connectchats.com/mcp.
- Name the server connectchats. Copilot opens the ConnectChats sign-in page, where you sign in with your passkey.
- Your shared chats are then available when you ask Copilot about your messages in agent mode.
-
Link your LinkedIn account
- Open https://connectchats.com/app and choose Link a chat app, then LinkedIn.
- Sign in to linkedin.com in your browser, then copy the session cookies ConnectChats asks for, following the guide on screen.
- ConnectChats checks the session and lists your conversations.
- If LinkedIn signs you out, link it again the same way.
-
Pick the chats Copilot can see
Every chat is listed in your ConnectChats dashboard. Share all of them or only the ones you choose. Copilot never sees the rest.
-
Ask Copilot about your LinkedIn
Open a new conversation in Copilot and ask about your chats. Copilot calls ConnectChats when it needs your messages.
How LinkedIn and Copilot work together
ConnectChats links to your LinkedIn messages using your signed in browser session, since LinkedIn offers no other way to share personal messages with another app. You choose which conversations your AI app can see.
-
LinkedIn in ConnectChats
Your LinkedIn inbox is supported: one to one messages, group conversations and InMail you receive. Posts, comments and connection requests are not included, only messages. Each linked chat starts with its last 200 messages, then every new message arrives as it is sent. Sales Navigator and Recruiter inboxes are separate products and are not included.

ConnectChats in Copilot
ConnectChats works with GitHub Copilot in VS Code and with Copilot Studio agents, which can both add a remote MCP server. The consumer Copilot app for Windows, the web and your phone does not offer a setting to add your own MCP server. In VS Code, GitHub Copilot adds a remote MCP server with the MCP: Add Server command. In Copilot Studio, makers add MCP servers to an agent under Tools, Add a tool, Model Context Protocol. It needs a work account and the right licences. The same ConnectChats account works in every AI app, so the chats you already linked are available in Copilot without linking them again. The consumer Copilot app has no setting for your own MCP servers, so use ConnectChats through GitHub Copilot in VS Code or a Copilot Studio agent.
Your LinkedIn stays under your control
-
You pick the chats
Copilot only sees the LinkedIn chats you share. Unshare a chat and it disappears from every AI app at once.
-
Drafts by default
Copilot prepares replies. You approve each one before it reaches LinkedIn, unless you turn on auto-send for that chat.
-
Stored messages are encrypted
Stored messages are encrypted with a key that only your passkey can unlock. We never train models on your messages.
Questions
Can Copilot read my LinkedIn messages?
Yes, once you link LinkedIn in ConnectChats and add ConnectChats to Copilot. Copilot reads only the chats you share, and only when you ask it something that needs them.
Can Copilot send LinkedIn messages for me?
Copilot can draft a reply and send it after you approve it. Messages go out from your own LinkedIn account. You can allow automatic sending for specific chats, and it stays off everywhere else.
Is the LinkedIn to Copilot integration free?
Yes. The free plan links two chat apps and works in every supported AI app, with no limit on what you ask. No card needed.
Do I need to install anything?
No. You add ConnectChats inside Copilot and link LinkedIn from your browser. There is no app to download and nothing runs on your computer.
Does it work with other AI apps too?
Yes. The same ConnectChats account works in ChatGPT, Claude, Grok, Manus, Muse and any AI app that supports remote MCP servers. Link LinkedIn once and use it everywhere.
Does it help me keep up with recruiter messages?
Yes. Your AI app can list the LinkedIn messages that still need an answer and draft polite replies you approve before they are sent.
Why does LinkedIn need browser cookies?
LinkedIn does not offer a sign-in that lets another app read your messages. Your browser session is how ConnectChats connects as you, and signing out of LinkedIn ends it.
Can I use ConnectChats in Microsoft Copilot today?
Yes, through GitHub Copilot in VS Code, which adds ConnectChats with the MCP: Add Server command, and through Copilot Studio agents. The Copilot app for Windows, the web and your phone has no setting to add your own MCP server.
Will it work with Slack messages?
Slack is a separate chat app in ConnectChats. Copilot sees Slack chats only when you link Slack in ConnectChats and share those chats, the same as any other chat app.
