How to export your leads from Sales Navigator

When the "export LinkedIn Sales Navigator list" feature is unavailable, the only solution is copying and pasting the data into a spreadsheet or an Excel file.

But we won't be exporting leads from Sales Navigator manually.

We recommend using PhantomBuster for this.

Here's a step-by-step guide on how to export lists from Sales Navigator.

Step 1: Launch PhantomBuster

Let's open up your PhantomBuster dashboard to export leads from Sales Navigator.

What is PhantomBuster?
PhantomBuster is an automated lead generation software. With over 100 tools available, it can help you to find and connect with potential clients on autopilot. It operates via "Phantoms" (single automated actions) and "Flows" (sequences of automated actions).

Don't have an account yet? Signing up only takes 1 minute, and you don't need a credit card.

You'll then be all set to export lists from Sales Navigator the easy way, with a little boost from PhantomBuster.

Step 2: Open the Sales Navigator List Export Phantom

Once you're signed up, head to the Store and look for the Sales Navigator List Export Phantom.

Click "Use this Phantom" to launch the Sales Navigator list export workflow.

Once your Sales Navigator List Export Phantom is set up, it's time to launch it!

How to export multiple LinkedIn Sales Navigator lists


If you have multiple lists and wish to extract them all in one single file, it's easy.


Go to Google Sheets, create a new sheet, and paste the URLs of all the lists you're interested in into column A.


Once you're done, instead of sharing the URL of one list in your Phantom's setup, share the URL of the spreadsheet with all your lists. Remember to make your file public so your Phantom can access it.
