The Lusha extension lets you reveal verified contact details directly from LinkedIn profiles, Sales Navigator, company websites, and your CRM - without leaving the page. This guide covers installation, how to prospect on LinkedIn, and all the actions available from the extension panel.
Before you begin:
Download the extension from the Chrome Web Store or the Microsoft Edge add-on store. Chrome and Edge are the recommended browsers — full functionality is not supported on Safari.
You'll need an active Lusha account. Log in here.
How to open the extension
Log in to your Lusha account.
Go to a LinkedIn profile, search results page, or company page.
Click the blue Lusha icon on the right side of the screen to open the extension panel.
💡 Note: A job change indicator will appear if a contact has recently changed roles.
Prospecting on LinkedIn
The extension works on LinkedIn profiles, search results pages, Sales Navigator, and company pages. Once the panel is open, you can see contact details, company information, intent signals, and colleagues — depending on your plan.
After revealing a contact's details, you can:
Save to a list
Click List.
Choose an existing list or create a new one.
Optionally add a tag.
Click Save.
Export to CRM
Click CRM.
Choose your connected CRM (Salesforce, HubSpot, etc.).
Select the record type — Lead, Contact, or Account.
Add to a sequence
Click Sequence under the contact's name.
Select an existing sequence or save a new one as a draft.
You can add up to 150 contacts at a time to a sequence directly from the extension.
💡 Note: Contacts without email addresses (Wishlist contacts) cannot be added to sequences.
Using the extension on your CRM
You can also use the extension to enrich contacts while browsing inside Salesforce, HubSpot, or Pipedrive:
Open the contact record in your CRM.
Click the blue Lusha icon to open the extension panel.
Reveal the contact's details and save, export, or add to a sequence.
💡 Note: In HubSpot, make sure the Company tab is open to view contact details correctly.
Search via the extension
Click the Search tab in the extension panel.
Type your search term and click Search.
You'll be taken to the Lusha Prospecting Platform.
Activity tab
The Activity tab shows all contacts you've saved via the extension. Filter by list to find contacts saved to a specific place. Click the three-dot menu (…) next to any contact to add to a sequence, export to CRM, or move to a different list.
More tab
The More tab gives you quick access to your account information and shortcuts to the Lusha platform (Prospecting, Lists, Sequences, Team Management, Integrations).
Extension preferences
Customise how the extension appears and behaves:
Side — choose left or right
Auto-open — toggle on or off
Lusha Everywhere — enable to use the extension on B2B websites beyond LinkedIn
💡 Note: Extension position settings are saved per website. If you move the extension to the left on LinkedIn, it will stay on the left for LinkedIn only. Other sites retain the default right-side position.
Now you're ready to find and save prospects directly from LinkedIn and your CRM. For troubleshooting, see Why is my extension blank on Chrome?
