After your Social Account has been active for a few months, a safe range for connection requests is typically:
Up to 100 connection requests per week
Around 20 per day, though the daily number is flexible
📌 Important: The Social Platform enforces a weekly limit, not a strict daily one. You won’t be flagged just for sending more than 20 in one day, as long as your overall weekly activity stays within a natural range.
Factors That Influence Your Limits
The exact number of connection requests you can send safely depends on several factors:
Social subscription type
Premium and Sales Navigator users generally have higher limits than those on free plans.
Social Selling Index (SSI)
Accounts with high SSI scores are seen as more trustworthy and may be allowed to send more invitations.
Acceptance rate
A high percentage of accepted requests signals healthy, human-like activity.
Account history and reputation
Accounts with long-term, consistent usage are less likely to be flagged.
Variety of activity
Mixing actions like profile views, content engagement, and messaging helps maintain a natural behavior pattern.
Automation behavior
Avoid unnatural patterns. Sudden spikes or overly repetitive actions can trigger restrictions.
✅ Tip: Scale gradually, track your acceptance rates, and avoid consistently hitting the upper limits. For better results, personalize your invitation messages to boost acceptance.
What to Do If You Hit the Weekly Limit
If you receive a notification about reaching your connection request limit, don’t panic. This simply means that the Social Platform’s system has flagged your recent activity for review.
To reduce the risk of further restriction:
Pause sending connection requests for 5 days.
After 5 days, try sending a few manual connection requests.
If those are successful (no blocks or errors), you can gradually relaunch your automation tool.
Never restart automation before testing manual requests first.

When Does the Weekly Limit Reset?
The Social Platform’s weekly connection limit usually resets on Mondays.
For example, if you run out of your connection requests limit on Friday, your limit will reset the following Monday.
