Use and Manage Lead lists in your Automations

This guide explains how to use your saved LinkedIn Leads lists with other Phantoms. This lets you automate personalized outreach, enrichment, and syncing, without duplicating data or uploading spreadsheets.

Why use a Leads list

Once you’ve created a list using filters (like job title, company, or the Phantom used), you can plug it into multiple automations.

Using a Leads list helps you:

  • Save time: no need to copy data into a spreadsheet.

  • Keep campaigns consistent and organized.

  • Avoid duplicates or manual updates to your data.

You can use Lead lists to:

Only Phantoms that accept LinkedIn profile URLs are compatible with LinkedIn Leads lists.

How to use a Leads list in another Phantom

To use a LinkedIn Leads list in another Phantom:

  1. Log in to your PhantomBuster workspace, and open the Solutions page.
  2. Use filters or search to find the Phantom you want to use.
  3. Click Use now to open the setup.
  4. When asked where your leads come from, select:

    • My Lists → [Your list name]

  5. Finish the rest of the setup and launch the Phantom when ready. The Phantom will now process the leads stored in that specific list, just like it would from a spreadsheet.

What happens after launch 

When the Phantom runs: 

  • It processes leads from your list the same way it would from a spreadsheet or copied link.

  • Any new data (e.g. email addresses, message status), is automatically saved to the matching lead’s profile. 

You can see exactly which Phantom last updated a lead by checking the Last updated by column in your Leads list. This field shows the name of the Phantom that added or enriched the latest data for each profile.

Keep your lists up-to-date 

Lead lists are dynamic. If your filters match new leads collected by another Phantom, those leads will be added to the list automatically. 

To keep lists clean and relevant:

  • Review and adjust filters regularly to keep lists relevant.
  • Use exclusions (e.g. Job title is not or Processed by is not) to separate audiences and avoid overlap.
  • Periodically export or archive leads after outreach is complete.
