salesnav-account-search

Run ad-hoc Sales Navigator account/company searches with all 15+ filter types via the LinkedIn Sales API.

Prerequisites

• Node.js 22+
• Chrome with remote debugging enabled, and a logged-in www.linkedin.com/sales/... tab kept open
• [chrome-cdp skill]
• LinkedIn Sales Navigator subscription

Requests run inside your Chrome tab (via CDP), not from Node — this is what lets them past LinkedIn's sales-api edge. So a Sales Navigator tab must stay open for every command, not just auth. If no /sales/ tab is open, open one (see chrome-cdp "Agent guidance"): node skills/chrome-cdp/scripts/cdp.mjs open https://www.linkedin.com/sales/home.

Setup

One-time auth — open Sales Navigator in Chrome, then:

node salesnav-account-search.mjs auth

Usage

Search accounts

# Search by industry and headcount
node salesnav-account-search.mjs search --industry="Technology" --headcount="E,F,G"

# Search Fortune 500 companies with job openings

How it works

1. auth — Uses CDP to find an open Sales Navigator tab, validates the session (li_at + JSESSIONID), and writes a marker session.json. Cookies stay in Chrome — every request runs in-page with credentials:'include'.
2. search — Builds a RESTLI filter query from CLI flags, calls GET /sales-api/salesApiAccountSearch in-page, returns company results with metadata.
3. filters — Prints all filter types with accepted values and usage examples.

Data storage

~/.local/share/showrun/data/salesnav-account-search/
  session.json                 Session marker (cookies stay in Chrome)
  cache/
    search-<slug>-<ts>.json    Search result snapshots

Session expiry

If you get 401/403 errors, re-run:

node salesnav-account-search.mjs auth
