Wait for the initial sync to complete
Hyper begins fetching your chats, posts, and profile data. The sync is capped at a 90-day lookback window. Progress is visible in Settings → Connections.
What Hyper Syncs
Hyper reads your LinkedIn data only — it never posts, messages, likes, comments, or modifies anything on your LinkedIn account.
The 90-day lookback cap keeps the initial sync fast and focused on recent, actionable relationship context.

About LinkedIn data freshness
Hyper syncs LinkedIn data incrementally — new messages and posts are pulled in regularly, subject to LinkedIn’s rate constraints. If you notice a recent conversation isn’t appearing, wait a few minutes and try again as the sync catches up.

If the LinkedIn session expires or is invalidated, Hyper will show a Reconnect prompt in Settings → Connections.1
Go to Settings → Connections
Open the Hyper desktop app and navigate to Settings → Connections.

Click Reconnect next to LinkedIn
Click the Reconnect button to open the LinkedIn authentication flow.

Re-enter your LinkedIn credentials
Complete the sign-in in the browser-hosted window. Hyper re-establishes the session and resumes incremental sync. Your previously indexed data is preserved.
