TL;DR — LinkedNav finds work emails from LinkedIn profiles three ways: enrich contacts on demand in Contacts (single or bulk), auto-enrich inside an outreach campaign after the LinkedIn invite is sent (emailed from your own mailbox), or enrich automatically when you export to Instantly.
Three ways to enrich emails
| Contacts | Campaign | Instantly export | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Where | Contacts page | Campaign → Email tab | Integrations → Instantly |
| Trigger | Click Get Email | Automatic, after invite sent | On push to Instantly |
| Best for | Building your database | LinkedIn + email together | Scaling cold email |
See email enrichment and the LinkedIn email finder.
Method 1 — Enrich a contact in Contacts
On the Contacts page, click Get Email on a person's row. Enrichment runs in the background and the email saves to that contact automatically.
To do many at once, select contacts and choose Enrich Email — up to 1,000 per batch. This turns a list imported from LinkedIn lead generation or Sales Navigator into an email-ready list in one pass. You can also enable Automatic Email Enrichment so newly added contacts with a LinkedIn URL get queued on their own.
Method 2 — Auto-enrich inside an outreach campaign
In an Outreach Campaign, open the Email tab and turn on Email after invite. After each LinkedIn invite is sent, LinkedNav finds that lead's email from their LinkedIn URL and emails them from your connected mailbox — a parallel LinkedIn + email touch.
The settings:
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Send from | Which connected mailbox sends the email |
| When to send | After invite sent (default), after welcome message, or after first follow-up |
| Emails per day | Send cap per mailbox — default 20 (1–500) |
| AI-written email | On = AI drafts per lead; Off (default) = use the subject/body from the prompt's Email tab |
You connect a mailbox in Integrations → Email Accounts first. This is part of LinkedNav's campaign automation and broader sales automation.

Method 3 — Auto-enrich on export to Instantly
If you run cold email in Instantly, install the Instantly integration from the Integrations page. From then on, every contact you push lands in Instantly already enriched — LinkedNav enriches as it exports, with no CSV or separate step.
Go to Integrations → Instantly → Install this app and connect your account. See the Instantly integration for setup details.
