Quick search and LinkedIn links
Jump to any person, company, chat or project with ⌘K, or paste a LinkedIn link.
Quick search jumps you straight to a person, company, chat or project from anywhere in Ladel. It’s also the fastest way to look someone up from LinkedIn: paste their profile link and their Ladel profile opens.
Open quick search#
- Press ⌘K on a Mac or Ctrl K on Windows. Press it again to close.
- Or click Search near the top of the sidebar. When the sidebar is collapsed, click the search icon.
The box reads Search people, companies, chats or paste a LinkedIn link….
Search by name#
Type at least two letters
After a short pause Ladel shows up to 5 matching people and 5 matching companies, along with your matching chats, saved searches and projects.
Pick a result
Click it, or move with the arrow keys and press Enter.
| Result | What clicking it does |
|---|---|
| Person | Opens their profile in a window over the page you’re on. |
| Company | Opens the company profile. |
| Chat | Opens the chat with Haley. |
| Project | Opens the project. Each project shows its status. |
| Saved search | Opens the results of an earlier keyword search in its project. |
With the box empty, you see Recent chats and the action New chat with Haley. Switch between Recent and Best match at the top to change the order.
Paste a LinkedIn link#
Paste a full LinkedIn address and Ladel looks up that exact person or company:
| You paste | Ladel finds |
|---|---|
| linkedin.com/in/… | That person. |
| linkedin.com/company/… | That company. |
| linkedin.com/school/… | That school or university. |
| linkedin.com/showcase/… | That company’s showcase page. |
While a LinkedIn link is in the box, chats and projects are hidden so the match is easy to see.
From LinkedIn to outreach in seconds
Copy someone’s profile address on LinkedIn, press ⌘K, paste, and press Enter. On their profile, look up the email, then press Write email. See Finding contact details.
When nothing comes back#
| Message | What it means |
|---|---|
| No one with that LinkedIn profile in the data. | Ladel doesn’t have that person yet. Check the link is a profile (/in/), not a post or a search. |
| No company with that LinkedIn page in the data. | Ladel doesn’t have that company on record. |
| Nothing found. | No person, company, chat or project matches. Try fewer letters or another spelling. |
| Search failed. Try again. | Something went wrong reaching Ladel. Try again in a moment. |
Other places that take LinkedIn links#
- The keyword box on People search takes a profile link.
- The keyword box on Company search takes a company page link.
- Haley understands both in a chat, for example “who is linkedin.com/in/… and where did they work before?”
Questions#
Does quick search search everyone, or only my projects?
People and companies come from all of Ladel. Chats, saved searches and projects are only yours.
Can I search for a phone number or email?
No. Contact details aren’t searchable. Search by name, title, company or LinkedIn link.
