Why this automation is useful#
Lead lists organize prospects inside Sales Navigator. Creating many lists by hand is slow when you run campaigns per client or per segment.
The automation returns the list URL in the output. You can feed that URL into an automation that adds profiles to the list.
A clear name and description keep the account organized. Team members understand what each list contains.
Use cases#
- Create one list per client campaign. An agency creates a named list for each client. Profiles land in the right list. Reporting stays clean across accounts.
- Segment by persona. Create lists for VPs of Sales and for RevOps Managers. Add profiles to each list. Write one message per persona.
- Prepare event outreach. Create a list before a conference. Add the attendees you find in search. Message the full list after the event.
- Structure a new sales territory. A sales rep creates one list per region. Saved searches feed each list. The territory stays organized from day one.
- Track competitor hiring moves. Create a list for competitor employees. Add their sales and marketing staff. Track their hiring moves every month.
How to use it#
- Connect your Sales Navigator account with the TexAu browser extension.
- Open Sales Navigator Lead List Creator in the TexAu Desktop app.
- Enter the inputs. Write a clear list name and a short description.
- Run the automation.
- Open the CSV in your export folder when the run ends.
The run creates the list only. It does not add profiles. Use Sales Navigator Lead List Builder with the output List URL to add profiles.

FAQ#
Q: How many lists can I create per day? A: TexAu sets a default limit of 100 executions per day for this automation.

Troubleshooting#
The automation asks me to connect the account again. The platform session expired. Reconnect the account with the TexAu browser extension. See Connect accounts with the TexAu browser extension.
The run fails with an invalid URL error. Copy the URL exactly as the Inputs table shows. The automation checks the URL format before it runs.
The action did not appear on the platform. Check the run status in the History section. If the run failed, reconnect the account and run again.
The automation skipped my input. TexAu dedupes repeated runs of the same input. A second run of the same input does not repeat the action.
The same run fails several times. Note the exact error message from the app. Contact TexAu support and include this message and the automation name.
