How to add leads from Sales Navigator

Table of content

Using the GetProspect Chrome extension, you can add leads from a LinkedIn search. For that, you can use different types of LinkedIn accounts:

Here is a step-by-step guide on how to begin your search using LinkedIn Sales Navigator:

1. Install the GetProspect Chrome extension.

Follow the link and install the extension into your Google Chrome browser. Press Add to Chrome button.

2. Start a search on Sales Navigator.

First of all, sign in to your Sales Navigator account.

Now you can start the search in Sales Navigator. Learn how to search for people using Sales Navigator.

After the search, click the GetProspect extension icon to bring up the extension window. 

3. Selecting and saving the leads.

You can choose a list to save your leads to by typing its name into the Select list field. As you type, you'll see suggestions based on your existing lists. You can also create a new list directly from there if needed.


After that, there are a couple of methods you can use to save the leads:

  • Select leads manually by selecting GP checkboxes next to their profiles and then clicking the Save button in the extension window.  
  • If you need to save most of the leads from the page, but not all of them, you can press the Select All button and unmark those few contacts that you don't want to save

  • Save all leads on a page by clicking on the Save all button in the extension window.
  • Save multiple pages by inputting the number of pages in the Autosave pages to list section, and clicking the Save pages in the extension window.

Important Note:

  • It's not possible to save leads without discovering their email addresses.
  • To keep your LinkedIn account active, the extension allows viewing 1800 leads per 24 hours. To save more per 24 hours, use Scan Mode.
  • LinkedIn allows viewing a maximum of 2,500 leads per search. Learn what to do if you have more than 2,500 leads in your search results.
  • The extension won't let you save leads if you reach the limit of discovered emails for GP account according to your plan. You'll need to update your plan or upgrade to bigger.
  • Keep the Google Chrome tab open during saving leads in LinkedIn; otherwise, Google Chrome will stop adding, and will continue after opening the tab.

4. Avoiding duplicates

The GetProspect system always checks the leads for duplicates. The leads that were saved earlier won't be added to your account again, therefore you won't be charged any credit.

You can see if the lead had been saved before. The checkboxes beside such leads will show the email status and won't be selectable:

If you have leads from other apps that you don't want to add again by GetProspect, you can upload a CSV with them. Check how to upload this file.

You can disable the duplicate check if you want to resave contacts that were previously saved. Just click the gear icon to open Settings, then turn off the Check duplicates before saving toggle.

5. View and export saved leads with emails

After saving leads in the extension, you'll be able to view them with emails inside GetProspect at the Contacts page.

You can view, export, delete, or move them. Learn more about how to manage your contacts. On the top right corner, you'll see an Export button. By clicking it, you can export the current view of contacts into CSV or XLSX file. Learn how to export the contacts.

6. Extension settings

The Settings menu can be accessed by clicking the gear icon in the top right corner of the extension window. 

Here you can see:

  • Your current account and workspace 
  • Name of your plan 
  • Available credits 
  • LinkedIn profile views for the last 24h

You can manage the following settings:

  • Auto open plugin: turn on or off the automatic opening of the extension on a LinkedIn page.
  • Display button on LinkedIn:- turn on or off the automatic appearance of the button that opens up the extension window.
  • Check duplicates before save: turned on by default to make sure that duplicates are constantly checked for by the system.
  • Scan mode: enables or disables the Scan mode, which allows you to save more leads per 24 hours than the limit allows.
