Search URL too long - Troubleshoot Video (Sales Navigator)
This video covers aspects of the article. I've included a step-by-step walkthrough below if you prefer to read over and resolve this quickly without the video.
How do I quickly shorten the URL in Sales Navigator?
If removing filters is not an option, head to the search in Sales Nav, then click Save Search to get notified of new results. Once that's done, you can easily export your search.
Navigate to your search, go to the filters section, and you'll see a switch/toggle that says Save search to get notified of new results. See the below:
Once that's done, check the URL at the top to make sure that it says, savedSearchId. See the image below:
Once that's done, you can hit 'Export leads with Wiza', and you shouldn't experience any more difficulties.
How do I shorten the URL in Prospect?
Currently, saving the search and quickly shortening the URL like you would in Sales Navigator isn't possible. However, there are several ways you can refine your search.
The best approach is to start with a broad filter with many options. For instance, in the image above, the location section has numerous entries. If I narrowed it down to just 'New York,' the issue could be resolved.
If you encounter multiple filter options under one category, please try removing some before proceeding with the export process.
Still needing help?
If you're still experiencing the same issue, please check your filters and reduce them as much as possible.
