If you see a "Too Many Requests" message from LinkedIn, this is a temporary rate limit, not an account ban.
Why This Happens
LinkedIn monitors usage patterns and temporarily restricts access when they detect high activity. This can occur when:
You've manually browsed many profiles in addition to scraping
Multiple large scraping tasks ran in quick succession
You exceeded LinkedIn's internal daily limits
What You Need to Know
Scraping profiles on LinkedIn Sales Navigator involves some inherent risks. We cannot guarantee you'll never face issues, and we advise every user to act at their own discretion.
However, none of our users has ever had their account permanently blocked because of WizLeads. In rare cases when users make many large requests several days in a row, they receive the temporary alert and simply wait 24 hours before resuming.
What to Do
Stop all scraping immediately - Don't retry or start new tasks
Wait at least 24 hours - LinkedIn needs time to reset your rate limits
Ideally wait 48-72 hours - For larger accounts or repeat occurrences
Use Account-Less mode - This eliminates personal account risk entirely
Prevention Tips
Set a conservative daily limit in your account settings
Spread large scraping projects over multiple days
Avoid running multiple large tasks simultaneously on the same account
Consider using Account-Less mode for high-volume scraping
