Thought I’d share my experience using LinkedIn’s Autofill feature. This feature is still in beta (I think) but since I am a Bizo customer (now owned by LinkedIn) I was able to get access.
First off, here’s what it is/does. Check it out both signed in to and signed out of LinkedIn: http://go.kinvey.com/hi-unbounce-folks/
I don’t have any meaningful data yet but my gut tells me that this will have a big positive impact on my forms (I work for a B2B software company; almost all of our customers are LinkedIn users).
It was actually really simple to implement. LinkedIn gives you an API key, and you just need to insert this code into the page using the custom HTML box:
<script src="//platform.linkedin.com/in.js" type="text/javascript"> <br /><br /> api_key: YOUR_API_KEY <br /><br /> noAuth: true <br /><br /> lang: en_US <br /><br /> </script>
Some tips:
Make the custom HTML box 171px wide and 33px tall - this is the size of the button and will help with placement
ENTER_FORMID_NAME is Unbounce’s Form ID (found under Advanced in the right-side attributes column). For example, #lp-pom-form-26 (keep the hashtag).
ENTER_FIRST_NAME and other fields are Unbounce’s Field IDs. So Edit Form Fields > Select field > Field Name and ID.
Happy lead hunting!
