This guide introduces the LinkedIn Leads page: your workspace hub for storing, filtering, and using LinkedIn profiles collected by compatible Phantoms and Workflows. You’ll learn how leads are added, how updates and deduplication work, and how to manage your data as your database grows.
What the LinkedIn Leads page does
The LinkedIn Leads page is available in every PhantomBuster workspace. It's designed to:
- Store LinkedIn and Sales Navigator profile data from compatible Phantoms and Workflows.
- Avoid duplicates by checking LinkedIn profile URLs.
- Let you group and filter your data into lists for outreach or enrichment.
- Give you quick access to export, edit, or launch new Phantoms.
- Support up to 100,000 leads per workspace.
The LinkedIn Leads page is not optimized for mobile use. For the best experience, use a desktop browser.
How leads are added
Leads appear in the LinkedIn Leads page automatically whenever a compatible Phantom or Workflow collects a valid LinkedIn profile URL.
Key behavior:
-
If the lead is new, it's added to the database.
-
If the lead already exists, it’s updated instead of duplicated.
-
Only Phantoms and Workflows that collect LinkedIn profile URLs will send leads to this page.
You can still add leads from Phantoms that are not compatible by chaining them with a compatible one (like LinkedIn Profile Scraper) to pass profile URLs into your workspace.

How lead data is updated
When a compatible Phantom processes a profile already in your workspace:
-
New information replaces outdated values (like a new job title or location).
-
New fields are added (such as additional emails or phone numbers).
-
Any manual edits you’ve made to a lead are preserved, they won’t be overwritten.
This ensures your lead data stays fresh while preserving any edits you’ve made manually.
What happens if you reach the lead limit
Each workspace can store up to 100,000 LinkedIn leads.
If you hit this limit:
-
New leads won’t be added to the LinkedIn Leads page.
-
You’ll see an error like: “X leads could not be sent”
-
The affected leads will still appear in the Phantom’s downloadable results file.
To fix this, export and delete older leads to free up space.
