Connect to LinkedIn Sales Navigator
To connect to LinkedIn Sales Navigator data:
Select Get Data from the Home ribbon in Power BI Desktop. Select Online Services from the categories on the left, then scroll until you see LinkedIn Sales Navigator (Beta).
Select Connect to continue.
You'll be advised that you're connecting to a third-party connecter that's still under development.
When you select Continue, you're prompted to specify which data you want.
In the LinkedIn Sales Navigator window that appears, select which data you want to return, either All contacts or Selected contacts from the first drop-down selector. You can then specify the start and end dates to constrain the data it receives to a particular time window.
Once you've provided the information, Power BI Desktop connects to the data associated with your LinkedIn Sales Navigator contract. Use the same email address you use to sign in to LinkedIn Sales Navigator through the website.
When you connect successfully, you're prompted to select the required data from your LinkedIn Sales Navigator contract from the Navigator.
Once you've selected the data you require, either select Transform Data to continue tranforming the data in the Power Query editor, or select Load to load the data into Power BI Desktop. Once in Power BI Desktop, you can create whatever reports you like with your LinkedIn Sales Navigator data.
