LinkedIn Sales Navigator Scraper
Scrape a LinkedIn Sales Navigator search into a list you can message.
How to scrape a Sales Navigator search in 3 steps
The link check is free. The scrape runs in a Replygrow trial, with no card. There's no Chrome extension to install: the scrape happens in your Replygrow account, not your browser.
1. Run your search and copy the URL
Filter by title, region and headcount until the results match your market. Then copy the full address from the results page.
2. Paste it into the checker above
The checker names the filters it found, in your browser. It can't count the leads, because that number isn't in the URL.
3. Run the scrape in a free Replygrow trial
Start the 7-day trial, connect the account that holds your Sales Navigator seat and paste the URL. Up to 2,500 leads land in a list.
Which Sales Navigator links can you scrape?
Any lead search or lead list. An account search lists companies, so it won't work.
| What you paste | Works? | What to do |
|---|---|---|
| A lead search results page | YesYes | Copy it from the address bar |
| A saved lead search | YesYes | Open it, then copy the URL |
| A saved lead list | YesYes | Open the list, copy its URL |
| A search with keywords | YesYes | Keywords travel in the link |
| An account search | NoNo | Run a lead search on those accounts |
| One lead's page | NoNo | Save the lead to a list instead |
Sales Navigator writes your filters into the link, so the checker can read them back without opening anything. A keyword string from the LinkedIn boolean search builder goes into the same link.
What the Sales Navigator scraper collects
Seven fields for every lead, each one as the person wrote it on LinkedIn.
| Field | What it holds |
|---|---|
| Name | First and last name |
| Headline | The line under their name |
| Job title | Their current position |
| Company | Their current employer |
| Location | City or metro area |
| Profile URL | A link to the profile |
| Connection degree | 1st, 2nd or 3rd, from your account |
Download the list to CSV or Excel, or keep it in Replygrow for a campaign. As the campaign runs, Zapier or Make pass each lead on to a CRM.
Sort by connection degree before you reach out. 2nd-degree leads share a connection with you, which gives your note an easy first line.
How many leads can you scrape from one search?
Up to 2,500, because that's as far as Sales Navigator shows any one lead search.
| Limit | Number |
|---|---|
| Lead results Sales Navigator shows per search | 2,500LinkedIn, official |
| Leads Replygrow collects per search | 2,500Replygrow, not LinkedIn |
| Account results per search | 1,000LinkedIn, official |
| Leads per saved list | 1,000LinkedIn, official |
A search that matches more people still stops at 2,500, and nothing on the page warns you. Split it on one filter, such as region or headcount, until each part shows fewer. The LinkedIn search limits guide walks through the split.
Why didn't my Sales Navigator scrape work?
Three causes cover most failed or short scrapes.
It stopped at 2,500 leads
That's Sales Navigator's cap per search. Split the search by region or headcount and scrape each part.
The checker says it isn't a lead search
You copied an account search or one lead's page. Run a lead search and copy the results URL.
The search won't run in Replygrow
The connected LinkedIn account needs an active Sales Navigator license. Connect the account that holds the seat.
How to scrape Sales Navigator without a tool
Sales Navigator has no export button for lead searches.
Without a tool you can save leads to a lead list (up to 1,000 per list, and it isn't a file), copy each results page into a sheet by hand, or sync saved leads to a CRM on Advanced Plus. Export Sales Navigator leads to CSV or Excel walks through each route and what LinkedIn allows.
Is it safe to scrape Sales Navigator?
Safety on LinkedIn comes down to pace, and LinkedIn doesn't publish the numbers.
LinkedIn works out its limits per account, from how that account behaves. So no tool can promise you a safe volume, and a page that quotes one is guessing.
What you control is how the work looks. Replygrow runs from your own LinkedIn account in the cloud, through a dedicated residential proxy in the country you choose, and sends only during the hours you set. See safe LinkedIn automation for the settings.
Replygrow can send up to 100 invitations a day per account, and up to 300 a week is the pace to plan around. Start a new account lower and build up over a couple of weeks.
Is scraping Sales Navigator legal?
It depends on three sets of rules, and on what you do with the leads.
| What you do with the leads | Verdict |
|---|---|
| Message people who fit your market | YesFine with a lawful basis |
| Say where you found them | YesRequired in the EU and UK |
| Drop anyone who objects, for good | YesRequired |
| Keep leads you'll never contact | NoHard to justify |
| Sell or publish the list | NoDon't |
Three sets of rules apply, and they answer differently. LinkedIn's User Agreement restricts automated collection, which is a contract matter: the risk is to your account. In the US, a court held in hiQ v. LinkedIn that scraping public pages likely isn't unauthorized access under the CFAA. In the EU and UK, GDPR applies to names and job titles whether a profile is public or not.
Now that you have the leads, start the conversations
