How you ask

  • “Build a LinkedIn Boolean search for senior marketing managers in SaaS”
  • “Create a recruiter search for React developers in Berlin”
  • “Find decision makers on LinkedIn at Fortune 500 companies”
  • “Generate a Google X-ray search for LinkedIn profiles”

Inputs

  • request — The target role, profile, or buyer to search for — titles, must-have terms, geography, and exclusions.
  • scope — company, or a client-id under {company.clients}/ — a string with one reserved value, not a closed set
  • request — The target role, profile, or buyer to search for, with the must-have terms and exclusions that filters cannot express.
  • filters — Sales Navigator filter values (company size, seniority, geography) to set alongside the Boolean string instead of folding them into it.
  • request — The target role, profile, or buyer to search for; exclusions are expressed with -term rather than NOT.
  • existing-query — The Boolean or X-ray query to widen or tighten, exactly as currently run.
  • platform — Which platform the existing query targets; determines whether the broadened/tightened variant keeps the original's exclusion and filter syntax. (native | sales-navigator | google-x-ray)
