Delete “imported contacts” from LinkedIn

If you ever “imported contacts”, perhaps from your GMail address book, then LinkedIn will offer you those repeatedly as new connections to “invite” to your network.

If you want to stop that, go to https://www.linkedin.com/mynetwork/contacts/imported/ then select all and Delete them. Note that this will not delete anyone from your LinkedIn connections, just the pointless email contacts.

If everything went well, the above URL should now display something like “You don’t have any imported contacts”. Congratulations!

  1. Hi, Looks like my question from 6 June has not been approved? Be good to see it here so that -hopefully-someone will be able to provide an answer. Thanks.

    1. Sorry Greg, but I posted that advice in 2018 and probably LinkedIn has changed their site since then.
      I don’t use LinkedIn anymore, so unfortunately I cannot help. If you figure something out, please feel free to share it in another comment here, for others to see.
