# LinkedIn Sales Navigator

> Read your Sales Navigator saved accounts, leads, lists, TeamLink paths and account alerts in Hebno so account planning starts from current relationships.

The LinkedIn Sales Navigator integration brings your saved accounts and leads into client work. Ask who you have saved at Contoso Retail, which colleague can introduce you to a new buyer, or what changed at an account this month, and Hebno answers from Sales Navigator with each account and lead cited. Hebno reads Sales Navigator with your own seat and never writes to it.

## At a glance

| | |
| - | - |
| **Connection** | Personal connection. Each member connects their own Sales Navigator seat. |
| **Default access** | Read only |
| **Attach** | Saved accounts, saved leads, account lists, lead lists |
| **Search** | Hebno searches Sales Navigator when a request mentions a target account, a buyer, an introduction, a lead list or account news |
| **Link** | A project links to a saved Sales Navigator account |
| **Write** | None. Hebno reads only. |

## Before you start

You need:

* An active Sales Navigator seat on your LinkedIn account.
* Partner integrations turned on for your seat. A Sales Navigator admin manages this under **Admin settings → Integrations** in Sales Navigator.
* An allowed integration. An owner or admin sets **LinkedIn Sales Navigator** to **Allow** under **Admin → Connectors → Catalogue**.

Hebno connects through the Sales Navigator Application Platform, LinkedIn's programme for partner integrations. When you connect, LinkedIn shows a consent screen that lists what Hebno can see:

| Access | Why Hebno needs it |
| - | - |
| Your basic profile and seat | Identify you and confirm your Sales Navigator seat is active |
| Saved accounts and saved leads | Read the accounts and leads you saved, with their current details |
| Lists | Read your custom account lists and lead lists |
| TeamLink | Show which colleagues at your firm are connected to a lead |
| Alerts | Read account and lead alerts, such as job changes and company news |

LinkedIn issues access for 60 days at a time. Hebno shows a **Reconnect** prompt before it expires.

## Connect LinkedIn Sales Navigator

**1. Start the connection**

Open **Settings → Connections**, find **LinkedIn Sales Navigator** under **Company and market data** and select **Connect**. You can also select **Connect** from the prompt in a chat.

**2. Sign in to LinkedIn**

Sign in with the LinkedIn account with your Sales Navigator seat, review the access and select **Allow**.

**3. Return to Hebno**

The card shows **Connected** with your name and your Sales Navigator contract.

Hebno reads with your own seat, so you see only the accounts, leads and lists you have saved or that colleagues have shared with you. Tokens are encrypted at rest. Select **Disconnect** at any time, or ask an admin to revoke the connection under **Admin → Connectors → Connections**. You can also remove Hebno in LinkedIn under **Settings & Privacy → Data privacy → Permitted services**.

## What Hebno reads

| Sales Navigator object | Fields Hebno uses | Typical questions |
| - | - | - |
| **Saved account** | Company name, industry, headquarters, employee count, headcount growth, your notes and tags | "Which retail accounts have I saved?" |
| **Saved lead** | Name, headline, current title and company, location, time in role, profile link | "Who have I saved at Contoso Retail?" |
| **Account list** | List name, owner, accounts on the list | "What is on my 2027 retail targets list?" |
| **Lead list** | List name, owner, leads on the list | "Who is on the Contoso buying committee list?" |
| **TeamLink path** | Colleague connected to the lead, connection degree | "Who at the firm can introduce me to Contoso's new CFO?" |
| **Account and lead alerts** | Alert type such as job change, new hire, funding or company news, date, account or lead | "What changed at my saved accounts this week?" |

A LinkedIn Sales Navigator account attached to a chat.

Reads are live. Hebno queries Sales Navigator when a request needs it and does not copy profiles into Hebno. Only what a reply used is stored with the conversation as its sources, and each lead is cited with a link back to Sales Navigator.

> [!WARNING]
>
> Excerpts a reply uses become part of the conversation. Anyone you share the conversation with can read them, including names, titles and introduction paths from Sales Navigator.

## What Hebno writes

Hebno does not write to Sales Navigator. It does not save or unsave accounts or leads, change lists, send InMail or connection requests, or add notes. To record a relationship or a follow-up, use your CRM integration, for example [HubSpot](https://hebno.com/docs/integrations/hubspot.md) or [Salesforce](https://hebno.com/docs/integrations/salesforce.md).

## Link a project to a saved account

Linking marks which Sales Navigator account belongs to a project, so you can ask "what changed at the client?" without naming it.

1. Open the project and select **Brain**.
2. Under **Linked records**, select **Link record**, then **LinkedIn Sales Navigator**.
3. Search your saved accounts and select the client.

In chats tagged to the project, Hebno starts with the linked account for any question about the client's people, alerts or introductions. Members who open the link see only what their own seat allows. See [Linked records](https://hebno.com/docs/projects/linked-records.md).

## Use LinkedIn Sales Navigator in chat

* **Attach**: open the **+** menu, choose **Sources → LinkedIn Sales Navigator**, and pick a saved account, a saved lead or a list. Or type `/` and choose **LinkedIn Sales Navigator**.

* **Ask**: name the account, person or list in your request. For example:

  > Who is new in a senior role at Contoso Retail since September, and who at the firm is connected to them?

  > Summarise this week's alerts across my 2027 retail targets list and flag any leadership change.

  > Build a stakeholder map for the Contoso pricing review from my saved leads, grouped by function.

* **Research runs** show a **Checking LinkedIn Sales Navigator** step, with a chip for each account, lead and list it read.

* **Agents** can read Sales Navigator on a schedule, for example a Monday digest of alerts on saved accounts. Writes an agent proposes elsewhere appear in [agent approvals](https://hebno.com/docs/automate/agent-approvals.md) for review.

## Troubleshooting

| Symptom | Fix |
| - | - |
| LinkedIn says your seat is not enabled for partner integrations | Ask your Sales Navigator admin to turn on integrations for your seat under **Admin settings → Integrations**, then select **Connect** again. |
| **Reconnect LinkedIn Sales Navigator** appears | LinkedIn access lasts 60 days, or your seat was reassigned. Select **Connect** to authorise again. |
| A lead you can find on LinkedIn is not in answers | Hebno reads saved leads and lists. Save the lead in Sales Navigator first, then ask again. |
| TeamLink shows no paths | No colleague on your firm's Sales Navigator contract is connected to the lead, or TeamLink is turned off for your seat. |
| Alerts are empty for an account | Alerts appear only for saved accounts and leads, and only for the period Sales Navigator stores. |
| **Unavailable** on the row | An admin blocked the integration. Ask an owner or admin to allow it under **Admin → Connectors → Catalogue**. |
