Sales Navigator List Export

Tutorial

  1. Setup summary

    Here's a tutorial to help you set up the Sales Navigator List Export:

  2. Connect to Sales Navigator using PhantomBuster's browser extension

    This automation acts on your behalf on Sales Navigator. The safest and most efficient way for the Phantom to connect to your account is by using your session cookie, which you can retrieve using PhantomBuster's browser extension. It's a simple 2-click installation:

    If you're operating from another browser, you can find your cookie manually.

  3. Choose the Sales Navigator lists you want to export

    Provide your list URLs in one of the following formats:

    • A single Sales Navigator list URL.

    • Spreadsheet URL: Use a Google Sheet or CSV file that contains multiple Sales Navigator list URLs, one per row (make sure it is publicly accessible).
      Spreadsheet settings: The Phantom will pull data from the first column (A) by default. If your input is in another column, you can update this in the 'Spreadsheet settings' by selecting the right column's name.

    The Phantom will only be able to export lists that belong to your own Sales Navigator account.

  4. Specify how many leads or accounts to extract

    You're in control of how much the Phantom should extract in each run. Use the options below to manage your lead volume and avoid platform limits.

    1. Results per launch
    Set how many leads or accounts the Phantom should extract each time it runs.
    If the list is too long to complete in one go, the Phantom will resume from where it left off in the next launch.

    2. Results per list
    Set a maximum number of leads or accounts to extract from each Sales Navigator list. Useful for limiting output on large lists.

    3. Lists to process per launch
    Only applies if you're using a Google Sheet or CSV with multiple lists. Set how many lists (rows) to process per launch.

    Important:
    Sales Navigator has automation limits. Here’s how to stay safe:

    • Extract a maximum of ~2,500 leads or accounts per day.

    • Spread your Phantom launches across the day, ideally during business hours.

    • A more active, warmed-up account may allow for higher volumes, but increase gradually.

    These recommendations don’t include other Phantoms, Flows, or manual Sales Navigator activity.
    Always adapt your automation based on your total daily activity.

  5. (Optional) Fine-tune how your Phantom handles results

    1. Remove duplicate profiles between different searches
    By default, Phantoms are designed to avoid extracting the same profile more than once within a single launch.
    However, if you're running:

    • Multiple launches, or

    • Several similar search URLs,

    …it’s possible that the same profile appears more than once across those inputs.
    Enable this option to ensure the Phantom filters out duplicates across all launches and different search inputs, helping you avoid reprocessing the same leads in your outreach.

    2. Watcher mode
    Turn on Watcher mode to have the Phantom reprocess the same Sales Navigator search with each launch.
    It will extract only the new profiles that appear since the last run, and add them to your results.
    Ideal for keeping an eye on a dynamic search as new leads match your criteria

    Note: For this Phantom, Watcher mode only works when you're using one search URL as input, not spreadsheets or multiple searches.

    3. Use your second Sales Navigator team
    If you belong to multiple Sales Navigator teams, check this option to pull data using your second team instead of the default one.

    These advanced options can help you maintain high data quality, automate fresh lead capture, or target leads by team ownership. Choose what fits your sales strategy best.

  6. (Optional) Customize your results file

    This step lets you define how your extracted data is stored and optionally trimmed down for easy review.

    1. Name your results file
    Give your results file a custom name to help you stay organized.

    Important:

    If you rename your results file between launches, the Phantom will treat it as a new file and start over from the beginning, reprocessing all input data.
    This can be useful if you want to rerun the Phantom with updated settings or refresh existing data.

    2. Fields to keep
    Use this option to generate a second CSV that only includes specific fields.

    • Enter the field names separated by commas (e.g. companyUrl, description, companyName)

    • This is ideal for building lists to share with your team or import into a CRM.

  7. Set when and how often your Phantom should run

    Timing matters when building your pipeline. Set when and how often your Phantom runs to stay consistent without manual effort.

    Start by selecting a launch frequency from the four available options:

    1. Once (default option)
    Run the Phantom one time only.

    • You can choose to launch it manually.

    • Or schedule it to launch at a specific date and time.

    2. Repeatedly
    Run the Phantom automatically on a regular basis. You can set it to run once per day, several times during working hours, and more.

    3. After another Phantom
    Run this Phantom after another one finishes.

    • This lets you chain Phantoms together to create automated flows.

    • Choose which Phantom it should follow.

    4. Advanced
    Customize your schedule with more control.

    • You can pick specific minutes, hours, days, as well as days of the week or months.

    • Use this if you need a very precise launch schedule.

  8. Launch your Flow

    It'll run at optimal times to gather leads from your selected sources efficiently.

    You can follow its actions in real time as results files appear and update, giving you a clear picture of your pipeline building itself in the background.

  9. Discover your results

    Once your automation has run, you can view everything it found in the Phantom’s console.

    Inside the Phantom’s console, you’ll find two tabs:

    • Results: View and download the extracted data from this run.
      By default, results are available in CSV format.
      Click the More button to download the data in JSON format if needed.

    • Activity: See a summary of what happened during the launch. You can also access the Phantom’s logs here and review the full setup configuration used for the launch.

    Use these tabs to review, analyze, and manage the outcome of your automation directly from the console.
