Before we get into how to set up a custom proxy, it is essential to know why it's necessary and why you can prefer it over the In-built proxy.

Setting up a custom proxy can help in

✅ Managing multiple LinkedIn accounts.

Steps to Follow

1. In the Add account screen, select Add LinkedIn Account.

2. Enter your LinkedIn username and password

Here is how you can split it to fill in the fields shown in the below image

Custom Proxy IP: 139.5.181.138
