Importing from LinkedIn (Sales Navigator, employees, profiles, posts)

Updated Markdown

Besides importing a file, you can build a list straight from LinkedIn. In the New List wizard, pick a tile under Collect from LinkedIn; it goes straight to the import step. Each tile shows its price (all prices are in "Price list: what every action costs"):

  • Sales Navigator (a base fee plus a price per person) — paste a Sales Navigator search URL; imports the people in your results (up to 2,500, typically 5–10 minutes). Filters that depend on your own LinkedIn account (Relationship, Lead Interactions, Groups) are stripped from the URL automatically; everything else keeps working.
  • Company employees (a base fee plus a price per person) — paste up to 100 LinkedIn company page URLs, one per line, with optional location, job title, seniority and function filters (up to 1,000 employees total, across all companies, typically 3–8 minutes). Up to 10 companies are searched together; with more than 10, or with "Max results per company" set, each company is searched on its own and the base is then a smaller fee per company, with a minimum, instead of one fee per import.
  • Keyword search (a price per person) — a keyword search (supports AND/OR/NOT and quotes) with an optional location filter (up to 1,000 profiles, typically 3–8 minutes).
  • Post reactions / Post comments (a price per person) — paste one or more LinkedIn post URLs; Comments also offers a time filter and an option to include replies, Reactions lets you filter by reaction type (up to 1,000 results total, across the posts you pasted, typically 2–5 minutes).

None of these use your own LinkedIn account or session — the import runs through a specialised LinkedIn data provider on ListPlus's side. See "Where does the data come from?" for how that provider is used elsewhere too.

What you get#

Every LinkedIn import fills in names, job titles, companies (where LinkedIn shows them) and LinkedIn URLs (plus engagement details like comment text or reaction type for the post-based imports) — never email addresses. Once the import finishes, an Enrich LinkedIn Data? prompt offers Contact Profiles (verified email, phone, job title and company from Prospeo, charged only when found) and Company Profiles (company data) for the new rows; Company Profiles is pre-selected only for a Sales Navigator import. Click Enrich Now to run it, or Skip and use the list's Enrich menu ("Contact Brief (by LinkedIn URL)") whenever you like instead.

Cost and timing#

Before you start, the wizard shows an Estimated cost box (base fee + results × per-result rate), and your balance must cover it. The exact rates, and when each part is charged, are in "Price list: what every action costs."

FAQ#

What LinkedIn imports can I run in ListPlus?#

Five: a Sales Navigator search, a company's employees, a LinkedIn profile search by keyword, people who reacted to a post, and people who commented on a post. Start any of them from a tile under Collect from LinkedIn in the New List wizard.

What data do I get, and are there email addresses in it?#

You get names, job titles, companies and LinkedIn URLs (plus comment text, reaction type or post date for the two post-based imports) — never email addresses. Add emails and phone numbers afterwards with enrichment.

How do I import a Sales Navigator search?#

Paste your Sales Navigator search URL into the Sales Navigator import; ListPlus imports up to the number of results you set (maximum 2,500) and automatically removes any filter tied to your personal LinkedIn account.

How do I import a company's employees, or people who engaged with a post?#

For employees, paste up to 100 LinkedIn company page URLs (optionally narrowed by location, job title, seniority or function); for post reactions or comments, paste one or more LinkedIn post URLs. Each of these imports up to 1,000 results in total.

How much does a LinkedIn import cost, and when am I charged?#

Before you start, the wizard shows an Estimated cost box (base fee + results × per-result rate) and your balance must cover it. The base fee (Sales Navigator, Company Employees) is charged when the import starts and is kept even if the search finds nothing or the provider's run fails; the per-result part is charged for the rows actually delivered — also for a run that stopped early. The exact rates are in "Price list: what every action costs."

Can I enrich the imported rows with emails afterwards?#

Yes. When the import finishes, an Enrich LinkedIn Data? prompt offers Contact Profiles — verified email, phone, job title and company from Prospeo, charged only when found — and Company Profiles (industry, size, website, description); Company Profiles is pre-selected only for Sales Navigator. Skip it and you can run the same lookup later as "Contact Brief (by LinkedIn URL)" in the list's Enrich menu; see "Find a verified email address."

The import runs through a specialised LinkedIn data provider on ListPlus's side and never uses your LinkedIn account or session. How you then use the contacts, for example for outreach, is your responsibility as the controller under GDPR — see "Your responsibilities under GDPR" (general orientation, not legal advice).
