How the monday.com Chrome Extension Works
Once you install the monday Chrome extension, it seamlessly integrates with your email and LinkedIn. Here’s how you can use it to add contacts directly to your CRM.
i. Adding Contacts from Email
When you open your email, you’ll notice a new icon next to the sender’s details, which is the icon of the extension. Click on the icon, and it will give you an option to view the contact in your CRM.

Once you do this, the extension automatically creates a new contact and adds their email address. You can then open the CRM item card to see all the details in one place.

ii. Capturing Leads from LinkedIn
The extension works on LinkedIn, too! When you view a profile, you’ll see the same icon next to the person’s name. Click it, and the extension adds them as a new contact in your CRM.

Right now, it only captures names, but future updates will include more details like job titles and company names.
