Tutorial
Overview
The Sales Navigator Account List Builder automation helps you create organized LinkedIn Sales Navigator account lists by extracting and compiling account information based on your search preferences. This is ideal for founders, marketers, sales managers, and growth hackers who need streamlined and actionable account data for lead generation or prospecting efforts.
Step 1: Log in to the TexAu App and Locate the Automation
Log in to your TexAu account at v2-prod.texau.com. Navigate to the Automation Store, and in the search bar, type Sales Navigator Account List Builder. Click on the automation to open its configuration page. This tool will guide you through building and exporting targeted account lists from Sales Navigator.
Step 2: Connect to LinkedIn with TexAu
To extract data from LinkedIn Sales Navigator, connect your LinkedIn account to TexAu. Click Add Account and select LinkedIn. Choose from the following connection methods:
- Magic Link: A secure link is sent to your email, allowing you to connect without entering cookies.
- Manual Method: Paste your LinkedIn session cookie into TexAu’s interface for authentication.
Tip: The Magic Link method is faster and avoids manual cookie handling.
Step 3: Select Your Input Source
Define the input source to specify which accounts you want to target in Sales Navigator. TexAu provides the following input options:
- Search URL: Enter the Sales Navigator search results URL directly into the input field.
- Google Sheets: Use a Google Sheet containing URLs or account names. Paste the sheet’s public URL or link your account.
- CSV File: Upload a CSV file with account data for processing.
Tip: Use Google Sheets or CSV for bulk data input.
Step 4: Schedule the Automation (Optional)
Configure a schedule for when the automation should run. Click Schedule, and set the start time or select a recurrence frequency:
- None
- At Regular Intervals (e.g., every 12 hours)
- Once
- Every Day
- On Specific Days of the Week (e.g., Monday and Wednesday)
- On Specific Days of the Month (e.g., 1st and 15th)
- On Specific Dates (e.g., March 1)
Tip: Scheduling ensures consistent updates to your account list.
Step 5: Iteration Delay (Optional)
Set a delay to mimic human behavior and avoid LinkedIn activity restrictions. Specify a Minimum Delay and Maximum Delay (e.g., 30 to 60 seconds) to introduce variability between actions.
Tip: Delays help prevent LinkedIn from flagging your activity as automated.
Step 6: Choose Your Output Mode (Optional)
Select how to export and manage the extracted account data. Options include:
- Google Sheets: Link your Google account for seamless export.
- CSV File: Save the data locally in CSV format.
- Output Management: Choose between Append, Split, or Overwrite to control how new data is handled.
- Deduplication: Enable this option to avoid duplicate entries in your exported files.
Tip: Google Sheets is ideal for real-time updates and team collaboration.
Step 7: Run the Automation on Cloud or Desktop
Click Run to start the automation. Select from:
- Cloud Mode: Runs the automation on TexAu’s servers for convenience.
- Desktop Mode: Runs locally using your device’s IP address for a manual-like operation.
Tip: Use Desktop Mode to save on cloud runtime credits.
Step 8: Access the Data from the Data Store
Once the automation is complete, navigate to the Data Store section. Locate the Sales Navigator Account List Builder task and click See Data to view or download your results.
The Sales Navigator Account List Builder enables users to efficiently compile and manage LinkedIn account lists tailored to their Sales Navigator search criteria. With automation scheduling, customizable input, and real-time data export, this tool is an invaluable asset for scaling sales and marketing efforts.
