Add contacts using LinkedIn search

Learn how to import contacts from Sales Navigator

Written by Tania

You can add contacts to Reply using LinkedIn Sales Navigator searches or saved lists. This is a simple way to bring in contacts without preparing a CSV file. Since the search runs through your LinkedIn account, you can use advanced Sales Navigator filters – like shared experiences, shared groups, and others – to bring in leads that are highly relevant to you.

💡Note: You need a LinkedIn account with Sales Navigator to use this feature. Other LinkedIn plans are not supported.

To add contacts from LinkedIn:

  1. Connect your Sales Navigator account.

  2. Go to the main People page, or open your sequence and switch to the People tab.

  3. Click Add contacts → LinkedIn search.

  4. Select your LinkedIn account and paste your Sales Navigator search or saved list URL into the LinkedIn URL field.

  5. Choose how many contacts to extract.

  6. (Optional) Select an existing list or create a new one where contacts will be added.

  7. If you're adding contacts directly to a sequence, choose what to do with existing contacts in other sequences:

    • Move to this one – contacts will be moved to the new sequence and removed from the current one

    • Skip – contacts will be skipped and will not be added to the new sequence

    • Add to this one and keep in current – contacts will be added to the new sequence while also staying in the current one

  8. Click Extract contacts.

You can import up to 2,000 contacts per day per LinkedIn account.

If you add contacts from the People tab inside a sequence, they will be added to that sequence once the extraction is complete.
