LinkedIn will give you a copy of your connections as a CSV file. It is free, it is official, and it is worth knowing exactly what it contains before you rely on it.

Go to Settings & Privacy, then Data privacy, then Get a copy of your data. Choose Connections rather than the full archive if you only want the list, because the smaller request is prepared much faster.
LinkedIn emails you a download link. The connections-only file usually arrives within minutes; the complete archive can take a day.
First name, last name, the company and position they had when you connected, the date you connected, and their profile URL. Email addresses appear only for connections who have chosen to share them.
The job titles are a snapshot, not live data. Someone who changed roles two years ago still shows the old one, which is worth remembering before importing it into a CRM.
Only connections. There is no export for invitations you have sent, invitations you have received, the people you follow, the pages you follow, or your groups.
That gap is why the rest of your network is so hard to reason about: there is no way to see it as a list at all.
Unpend’s Network Manager loads eight views of your network into a table and will export any of them to CSV: connections, invitations sent and received, people and companies you follow, your groups and your pending group requests.
The file is written by your browser on your computer. Nothing is uploaded, because there is no server involved in the collection at all. CSV export is a Pro feature; loading and reading every view is free and unlimited.
Yes. Settings & Privacy, Data privacy, Get a copy of your data, then choose Connections. It is free.
Only for connections who have chosen to share their address with connections. For most rows the field is empty.
Not through LinkedIn. Its export covers connections only. Unpend’s Network Manager can export the other views.
Unpend is a free Chrome extension that withdraws every pending invitation in a single run, and shows you the network LinkedIn will not. Three full cleanups free, any size, nothing leaves your browser.
