⚡ Important Notes & Best Practices

✔ Pagination Handling

Outboundry automatically scrolls and loads multiple pages from your Sales Navigator search to fetch more leads.

Tip: Narrow down your search filters to improve lead quality and avoid importing unnecessary profiles.

✔ LinkedIn Usage Limits

LinkedIn has daily activity limits. Importing very large searches may take time and will be processed safely in the background.

✔ Duplicate Handling

If a lead already exists in your workspace or campaign:

• Outboundry automatically prevents duplicate imports.

✔ Supported Account Types

This import method works only with:

• ✅ LinkedIn Sales Navigator accounts

For standard LinkedIn search, use the LinkedIn Search Import option instead.

❓ Troubleshooting

🔹 Import is not starting?

• Make sure you copied the correct Sales Navigator URL.

• Ensure you are logged into LinkedIn in the same browser.

• Refresh Outboundry and retry.

🔹 No leads imported?

• Check if the Sales Navigator search actually has results.

• Some filters may restrict visibility.

• Try a smaller search first.

🔹 Getting authentication errors?

• Reconnect your LinkedIn account inside Outboundry.

• Make sure your LinkedIn session is active.
