Export LinkedIn to Salesforce
Get LinkedIn leads into Salesforce without the native Salesforce-LinkedIn integration tied to Sales Navigator Advanced Plus ($170/seat/mo) or an AppExchange connector. Scrupp exports any LinkedIn search straight to Salesforce — verified emails, phones, company records, dedupe built in — from a free Chrome extension on any LinkedIn account.
Quick answer
Export LinkedIn to Salesforce
To export LinkedIn leads to Salesforce, teams usually pick one of three routes: (1) pay for Sales Navigator Advanced Plus to unlock the native Salesforce-LinkedIn integration, (2) install an AppExchange connector and pay per seat, or (3) use a Chrome extension that does the same CRM sync from any LinkedIn account — no paid tier required.
Option 3 is the Scrupp workflow. Connect Salesforce via OAuth, then click Export to Salesforce on any LinkedIn search. Scrupp creates Contact and Lead records with verified emails and phones, auto-associates the Account record, dedupes by email so existing Salesforce data is never overwritten, and sets the lead source for pipeline attribution. No CSV export, no manual field mapping, no AppExchange admin approval.
LinkedIn to Salesforce — who needs what? If you already pay for Sales Navigator Advanced Plus, the native integration handles seat-level sync. If you are on a free or regular LinkedIn account — where most searchers sit — Scrupp gives you the same end result, enriched contacts in Salesforce, at a fraction of the cost. Reps close faster when the LinkedIn profile, verified email, phone, and company record all land on the Salesforce Contact page automatically.
Choose by seat count: under 5 seats → Scrupp (pay-as-you-go). Over 20 seats already on Advanced Plus → LinkedIn native integration on AppExchange. In between → pilot Scrupp first, since switching is a one-click uninstall.
How it works
From LinkedIn to Salesforce in 3 steps
Free Chrome extension from the Chrome Web Store. Connect Salesforce via OAuth once — Scrupp requests only Contact, Lead, and Account write scopes. No AppExchange install needed.
Apply filters (title, industry, headcount, location). Scrupp works on all standard LinkedIn search views — free, Premium, or Sales Navigator.
Scrupp paginates the search, enriches each row via the multi-provider waterfall, and creates Salesforce Contacts and Leads with verified email, phone, and LinkedIn data. Dedupe by email runs automatically before every write.

FAQ
Common questions
Do I need Sales Navigator Advanced Plus to export LinkedIn to Salesforce?
No. The native Salesforce-LinkedIn integration requires Sales Navigator Advanced Plus ($170/seat/mo). Scrupp delivers the same result — enriched LinkedIn contacts synced to Salesforce — from any LinkedIn account, including free and Premium, without the Advanced Plus markup.
Do I have to install Scrupp through Salesforce AppExchange?
No. The sync happens via OAuth, not AppExchange — one-click connect, no admin approval. Scrupp writes to Contacts, Leads, and Accounts using the standard Salesforce APIs, minus the install friction.
How does Scrupp avoid creating duplicate Salesforce records?
Dedupe runs on email first, then LinkedIn URL as a fallback. If a contact already exists, Scrupp enriches the existing record instead of creating a duplicate, so already-populated fields are never overwritten.
Will the search cap at 2,500 results?
No. Scrupp splits a large search into smaller filtered queries and merges the results, so you can export 10K+ leads from one strategic LinkedIn search straight into Salesforce.
How are emails verified before they hit Salesforce?
Scrupp runs a multi-provider waterfall (5+ sources) followed by real-time SMTP verification. Typical deliverability is 90-92%. Only verified emails get written to Contact records.
What is the cost per lead synced to Salesforce?
Pay-as-you-go: scraping costs 1 credit per lead (about $0.01-0.03) plus 1 credit per verified email or phone. A fully enriched lead pushed to Salesforce lands around $0.02-0.06. Failed enrichments are not charged.
