# Searches and imports

> Tick people on a LinkedIn or Sales Navigator search or on your own connections, followers and following, add them to a Guhan List, or bulk import many at once.

Run any LinkedIn people search, with any filters you like. Guhan adds its own checkboxes and a bar to the results, and the drawer shows each person's status, the same badges described in [On a LinkedIn profile](https://docs.outzen.ai/chrome-extension/profiles.md#see-whos-already-in-guhan).

## Pick people on the page

A Guhan bar sits above the results with **Select all**, a count, **Clear**, **Bulk import…** and an **Add to Guhan** button. Tick the people you want, then press **Add N to Guhan**. The drawer opens on **Add to list**, where you choose the List and press the final button. Nothing is added until you do.

Your picks are kept as you move through the result pages of that search, and the count in the bar follows you. Start a different search and you start with a fresh selection, so picks from earlier browsing never carry into the next import.

The drawer shows your selection too, under **Import your selection**, with an **Add selected to list** button at the bottom. It sits below **Bulk import this search**, with an "or" between the two: either let Guhan collect people for you, or choose them yourself.

## Bulk import

To add many people at once, press **Bulk import…** in the bar (or in the drawer's **Bulk import this search** card). The import sheet asks for a List and how many people, and tells you how much there is:

* On a search, it shows about how many pages are left and the most people they hold, for example "About 3 pages to go, up to 30 people."
* On your connections, followers or following, it shows how many people the list has.
* The most you can import in one go is 999 (2,500 on a Sales Navigator search), or the room left in your workspace if that is smaller. Ask for more than exist and it stops early.

Guhan then goes through the result pages (or scrolls the list) for you, a few seconds apart, the way you'd browse. Keep the LinkedIn tab open while it runs. When LinkedIn shows a person's current title and company in the results, those come along.

## Watch it work

A progress card at the top of the drawer shows how many people have been added, were already in the List, or couldn't be added, and how far along it is. Pause or stop whenever you like; everyone already added stays added.

## Sales Navigator

On a Sales Navigator people search you get the same checkboxes, the same Guhan bar and the same bulk import. Sales Navigator shows 25 people a page and at most 100 pages, so one search holds up to 2,500 people, and that is the most one import takes.

* **Pages load as you scroll.** Sales Navigator fills in each page's rows only as the list scrolls. During a bulk import, Guhan scrolls the results for you in small, uneven steps, like a person reading down the page, then moves to the next page. A page takes roughly half a minute.
* **If a page doesn't finish loading,** the import stops with "Some results on this page didn't load" and keeps everyone already added. Scroll down the results once, then start again.
* **Matching.** Sales Navigator rows don't carry a profile link, so people are matched by their LinkedIn member ID. Someone who is already in Guhan under only a profile link may be added again.
* **Only people searches.** Lead pages, account searches and saved lists in Sales Navigator are not read.

You need your own LinkedIn Sales Navigator subscription.

## Your connections, followers and following

The same checkboxes, bar and bulk import work on your own **connections**, **followers** and **following** lists. Open the list, tick people or press **Bulk import…**, and the import sheet shows how many people the list has. Guhan scrolls the list for you, a few seconds at a time. LinkedIn doesn't show anyone else's followers or connections.

Your connections: the drawer lists the people loaded so far, and Bulk import… takes the whole list

> [!NOTE]
>
> People from these lists are matched by their LinkedIn member ID. Someone who's already in Guhan under only a profile link may be added again.

## If an import stops partway

LinkedIn may have asked you to check something, or the tab was closed. Look at the LinkedIn tab, finish anything it asks for, then start the import again. People already added stay added, and anyone already in the List is skipped.
