Q: LinkedIn is asking for the email addresses of people I want to invite. How should I handle this?

A: If LinkedIn prompts you to provide an email address for sending connection requests, it usually indicates that you’ve hit a limit for pending invites or that the recipient’s settings require an email address for connection requests.

To avoid this remove Pending Invites:

  • Start by removing your pending connection requests. This helps free up space and prevents LinkedIn from requiring email addresses for future invites. You can follow our step-by-step guide for removing pending invites.

Pro Tip: Regularly clean up your pending invites and maintain a steady pace of outreach to avoid hitting LinkedIn's limits. Staying within LinkedIn’s best practices will ensure a smoother experience for sending connection requests.
