Setting Up LinkedIn Integration
Some of Saber's most powerful features leverage your LinkedIn and Sales Navigator access to provide contact-level research and discovery. The Saber Chrome Extension enables these capabilities by securely connecting your professional network to the API.
⚡ Pro tip: The more users in your organization who install and connect the extension, the better your API's performance and data coverage will be.
What This Enables
Installing and connecting the Chrome Extension unlocks:
Contact Search - Find contacts at companies using Sales Navigator's filters (job titles, keywords, locations)
Contact Signals - Generate AI-powered insights about individual contacts from their LinkedIn profiles
Enhanced Contact Research - Enrich contact records with verified professional information
Deeper Company Data - Access more detailed company information through LinkedIn's network
Without the extension, these endpoints will return errors directing you to install it.
Prerequisites
Before installing the Chrome Extension:
Active LinkedIn account - A standard LinkedIn account
Sales Navigator subscription (recommended) - Required for contact search features. Basic LinkedIn access enables contact signals but with limited data.
Saber account - Log in at ai.saber.app
Chrome browser - Currently supports Chrome/Chromium-based browsers
Installation Steps
Install the extension from the Chrome Web Store:
Click "Add to Chrome" and confirm installation
Pin the extension (optional but recommended):
Click the puzzle icon in Chrome's toolbar
Find "Saber" and click the pin icon
Log in to Saber in the extension:
Click the Saber extension icon
Sign in with your Saber credentials
Connecting Your LinkedIn Account
After installing the extension:
Visit LinkedIn - Navigate to linkedin.com and ensure you're logged in
Open the Saber extension while on LinkedIn
Click "Connect LinkedIn Account" - The extension will detect your LinkedIn session
Verify connection - You should see a success message and "Connected" status
For Sales Navigator access:
Visit linkedin.com/sales and verify you can access Sales Navigator
Return to the Saber extension and refresh the connection
The extension will automatically detect your Sales Navigator subscription
Your LinkedIn credentials are used only to authenticate API requests and are never stored by Saber. The extension operates as a secure bridge between LinkedIn and the Saber API.
🏢 Team usage: We recommend having multiple team members install and connect the extension. This improves reliability, data freshness, and API performance for your entire organization.
What You Can Do Now
With LinkedIn integration active, you can use these API endpoints:
Contact Search - /v1/contacts/search
Contact Signals - /v1/contacts/signals/sync
See the full endpoint documentation below for all available parameters and options.
