What Is a Saved Search in Sales Navigator?
A Saved Search is a set of filters you configure in Sales Navigator and store for future use.
For example:
Founders in SaaS companies in the US
HR Managers in companies with 50–200 employees
Marketing Directors in fintech
Instead of rebuilding filters every time, you save the search once. Sales Navigator will then:
Continuously update results as new profiles match your filters
Allow you to revisit the search anytime
Notify you about new leads entering the search
This makes Saved Searches essential for ongoing prospecting.
How to Create a Saved Search in Sales Navigator
Step 1: Apply Your Filters
Go to the Leads tab in Sales Navigator.
Apply your filters on the left panel:
Job title
Geography
Company headcount
Industry
Any other relevant filters
You will see matching leads appear in the results.
Step 2: Save the Search
At the top of the results page:
Click Saved searches (top navigation bar).
Click Save current search.
Your search is now saved.
You can access it anytime from the Saved searches tab.
Step 3: Reopen a Saved Search
Click Saved searches.
Click View next to the saved search you want to use.
This loads the live, continuously updated results.
Why You Should Use Saved Searches
If you export a static list once, it becomes outdated.
A Saved Search solves this by:
Capturing new leads automatically
Keeping your targeting consistent
Enabling automation workflows
Recurring exports only work with Saved Searches because the system needs a dynamic list that updates over time.
How Recurring Exports Work
Step 1: Export a Saved Search
From Sales Navigator, launch an export from a Saved Search.
You will be redirected to the Evaboot app.
Step 2: Enable Recurring
Inside the app, you will see the option to make the export recurring.
You can schedule it:
Daily
Weekly
Monthly
Important: The schedule becomes active only after the current export is paid for.
If You Skip This Step
If you do not enable recurring during setup, a popup will appear giving you one more chance to activate it.
This popup appears only once per saved search.
Managing Recurring Exports
Once you have at least one active recurring export, a Recurring tab becomes visible in your dashboard.
From this tab, you can:
View all active schedules
Monitor upcoming runs
Delete a recurring export
Delete the next scheduled run
Deleting either will stop future automatic runs.
When to Use Recurring Exports
Recurring exports are useful when you:
Run continuous outbound campaigns
Want new leads added automatically
Need fresh data weekly or monthly
Monitor a niche or ICP over time
Saved Searches define your targeting.
Recurring exports automate the refresh.
