LinkedIn gives you the best B2B search on the internet and then keeps the results locked on the page: no export button on people search, none in Sales Navigator either. Your official data download covers your own connections — not the 200 prospects you just filtered. Linkydy fixes this with a proper LinkedIn export to CSV tool: collect leads as you search, then export the lot in one click.
What is in the export
Each lead is one row with seven columns — the exact fields a downstream tool needs, and nothing you will have to clean up:
| Column | What it contains |
|---|---|
| Name | First and last name as shown on the profile |
| Title | Current job title |
| Company | Current employer |
| Profile URL | Direct link back to the LinkedIn profile |
| Verified business email, if you ran enrichment | |
| Phone | Business phone, if found via Find Phone |
| Status | Pipeline status from your Linkydy CRM |
The email and phone columns are what make the export more than a scrape: run the email finder on your list first and the CSV comes out outreach-ready, not just a list of names.
One click, whole list
Exports run from the Linkydy dashboard, where all your collected leads live. Filter to the list you want — a saved search batch, a status, everything — and click export. You get a standard CSV that opens in Excel, Google Sheets, or Numbers, and imports into any CRM that accepts CSV, which is all of them.
The step-by-step version, from an empty search to a finished file, is in our guide: how to export LinkedIn search results to CSV.
CSV URL import: process lists from anywhere
The pipeline also runs in reverse. Feed Linkydy a CSV of LinkedIn profile URLs and it loads them as leads — deduped against what you already have — ready to enrich and work. That turns a static list from anywhere into an active pipeline:
- Event attendee lists. Conference speakers and webinar sign-ups often circulate with LinkedIn links. Import, enrich, follow up while the event is still warm.
- Old CRM exports. Leads gathering dust in a tool you left — pull the profile URLs out, import them, and restart the conversation with current titles and companies.
- Colleagues' spreadsheets. A founder hands you "my 80 dream accounts" as a sheet. Import it instead of rebuilding it by hand.
Handoff workflows that actually get used
A CSV is a means, not an end. The three handoffs we see most:
- To a spreadsheet for review. Export, sort by company or title, delete the rows that do not fit, and re-import the survivors elsewhere. Ten minutes of spreadsheet work beats an hour of clicking.
- To your CRM. Map the seven columns to your CRM's contact fields once, and every future export imports in seconds. Statuses carry over, so your pipeline stages arrive pre-sorted rather than as a flat pile of names. A ready-made structure is in our B2B lead list template.
- To an email tool. Enriched exports include verified business emails, so a cold email tool can pick the file up directly — while you run LinkedIn outreach in parallel from Linkydy itself.
Where the leads come from
Anything you can collect, you can export: leads saved from LinkedIn people search, from profile pages, and from Sales Navigator search results and lead pages. That last one matters — Sales Navigator has no native export at all, so Linkydy is the missing "download" button for lists you are already paying to build. And since every exported row keeps its lead card in the Linkydy CRM, exporting is a copy, not a migration: history, notes, and statuses stay live in the extension.
If you drive Linkydy from an AI agent over MCP, list building becomes a prompt: the agent searches, saves, and enriches — and you export the finished file.
