Turn a LinkedIn people search or your connections into a list you can download. You start the export from the Tomba Chrome extension, then follow it and download it in SLA.
Before you start
Install the Tomba Chrome extension and sign in to it.
Sign in to LinkedIn in the same browser.
Export your leads
Step 1. Open SLA in the left menu, then the LinkedIn tab. Under LinkedIn Leads Find, click View List.
Step 2. Click New scrape and pick where your leads are. LinkedIn opens in a new tab.
People search results: People who match a LinkedIn search. Run your search before the next step.
Connections list: The people you're connected to.
Pending invitations: Your LinkedIn invitations page.
Step 3. On the LinkedIn page, click the Tomba icon in your browser toolbar. Then set up the export in the panel:
Type a Campaign Name. This is only the name of your export, so pick one you'll recognize.
Click Next: Configure Options.
Set Max Pages and Max People. The defaults are 5 pages and 100 people. Max People goes up to 1,000.
Click Next: Review & Start, then Start Lead Generation.
Keep the LinkedIn tab open while it runs.
Step 4. When it's done, the panel shows what it collected. Check the records, then click Export 100 to Tomba. The number on the button is how many records you collected. An export needs at least 2 records.
Step 5. Go back to your LinkedIn leads list in SLA and find your export. Its status tells you where it is:
Status | What it means |
Pending | Waiting to start |
Running | Tomba is working through it |
Completed | Ready to download |
Failed | It stopped with an error |
Cancelled | It was stopped |
Step 6. Open the export when it's Completed. The Download Results card shows the credits your first download will use. Click Download Results, choose a file, then click Download.
File | What's in it |
Full List | All results |
Valid Emails | Contacts with verified emails |
Not Found | Contacts without data |
You only see the files that apply to your export.
đł Credits: Exports use credits only when you download them. The Download Results card shows the cost before your first download, and later downloads are free.
Exports in a team
In a workspace, which is a shared team account, you need the bulk permission from the Owner or Admin to download an export. Without it, you see Need Shared Bulks Permission in place of Download Results.
Common questions
Why don't I see Download Results?
The button changes when something is missing:
Upgrade Searches or Upgrade Verifications: You don't have enough credits.
Owner Needs More Credits: The workspace owner doesn't have enough credits.
Need Shared Bulks Permission: Ask the Owner or Admin for access.
Can I export companies too?
Yes. In the LinkedIn tab, click View List under LinkedIn Company Finder. Then click New scrape and pick LinkedIn Companies.
Does LinkedIn limit how much I can export?
Yes. LinkedIn sets its own daily limits, and free accounts have the lowest ones. The extension shows safety tips for your account. Keep your exports small and spread them out.
