When you add someone as a connector, you can ask them to share their LinkedIn connections.
The Swarm sends them a private link to the Connector Portal, where they can share their network in just a few clicks. Their connections are then added to your team’s network.
For owners and admins: sending a request
Go to Connectors and click Add Connectors.
Open the Person tab and search for the person you want to add.
Select the group they belong to, such as Team, Investors or Advisors, then continue.
On the Request LinkedIn connections step, check their email address and edit it if needed.
Click Send request.
The connector does not need a Swarm account and cannot access your team’s data. Sharing takes about two minutes on their side.
Other options
Skip for now — adds the connector without sending a request. You can send it later from the Connectors page.
Import CSV or add manually — use this if you already have their LinkedIn connections export.
You’ll see their connections on the Connectors page once they have shared them and processing is complete.
