CRM Data Enrichment automatically updates your Salesforce records with the latest contact and company information from Lusha - so your leads, contacts, and accounts stay current without manual data entry.
This feature is available for Lusha users with Salesforce as their CRM, on legacy plans only.

Before you start

1

Connect Salesforce

Connect Lusha to your Salesforce via the Integrations page.
2

Map your fields

In Salesforce Field Mapping, define and map the Lusha fields (emails, phone numbers) you want to push to Salesforce.
3

Enable Allow Override

Enable Allow Override so that Lusha can update fields on existing records.
Go to Enrich → CRM Enrichment to access the feature.

The CRM Data Enrichment dashboard

CRM Data Enrichment dashboard overview
The dashboard shows three main elements: Recommended Enrichments (predefined workflow templates), Enrichment Summary (totals by accounts, contacts, and leads), and the Enrichment Table (a detailed view of current and past enrichment activity).

Creating a workflow

Choose between two workflow types: an Update Workflow refreshes existing records with the latest data; an Enrich Workflow adds net new contacts to your accounts based on criteria you define.

Update workflow

1

Select the object type

Select the object type: Leads, Contacts, or Accounts.
2

Apply filters or choose all accounts

Apply filters based on Salesforce fields (e.g., industry, job title, geography), or select from a Salesforce report, or choose to enrich all accounts.

Choose which fields to update - emails, phone numbers, or both.

4

Set export options

On their first workflow creation, admins can only run it once - either to CSV or to Salesforce. Subsequent workflows can be recurring. This lets you test before automating.
Set export options - how often to run the workflow (daily or weekly) and a credit limit per run (optional).

Enrich workflow

The Enrich workflow finds and adds net new contacts to your Salesforce, aligned to accounts you already own.
1

Choose target accounts

Choose target accounts - by selecting the most recent accounts, by criteria (job title, seniority, department, location), or from a Salesforce report.

2

Add prospecting filters (optional)

Add prospecting filters - job title, seniority, etc. - to define which contacts qualify for enrichment.
Press Enter after each job title you add. Using commas to separate titles will create one long value and cause an error.

Enriching to CSV first

If you want to review enriched data before pushing it to Salesforce, use the CSV option. You can compare your existing Salesforce values against Lusha’s data, then decide whether to proceed.
If you enrich to Salesforce after reviewing a CSV, you won’t be charged again for records already enriched in that CSV.

Potential enrichment

Potential Enrichment lets you preview how many CRM records can be enriched before running a workflow, so you can plan credit usage in advance. You’ll find this column in the email you receive after enrichment completes, next to each eligible object type (Leads, Contacts, Accounts).
If you choose to enrich both emails and phones, there won’t be a potential enrichment count - since all options are already covered.
If you’ve reached your credit cap, you’ll still receive a table of potential contacts with hidden data in the CSV, so you never miss which records could have been enriched.
