# Getting started with Lusha's extension

The Lusha extension lets you reveal verified contact details directly from LinkedIn profiles, Sales Navigator, company websites, and your CRM - without leaving the page. This guide covers installation, how to prospect on LinkedIn, and all the actions available from the extension panel.

Before you begin:

- [Download the extension](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/) from the Chrome Web Store or the Microsoft Edge add-on store. Chrome and Edge are the recommended browsers — full functionality is not supported on Safari.
- You'll need an active Lusha account. [Log in here](https://dashboard.lusha.com/dashboard).


## How to open the extension

1. Log in to your [Lusha account](https://dashboard.lusha.com/dashboard).
2. Go to a LinkedIn profile, search results page, or company page.
3. Click the **blue Lusha icon** on the right side of the screen to open the extension panel.

💡 Note: A job change indicator will appear if a contact has recently changed roles.

## Prospecting on LinkedIn

The extension works on LinkedIn profiles, search results pages, Sales Navigator, and company pages. Once the panel is open, you can see contact details, company information, intent signals, and colleagues — depending on your plan.

The More tab gives you quick access to your account information and shortcuts to the Lusha platform (Prospecting, tables, Sequences, Team Management, Integrations).

## Extension preferences

Customise how the extension appears and behaves:

- **Position** — Choose whether to display the plugin on the left or right side of the screen.
- **Auto-open** — toggle on or off
- **Lusha Everywhere** — enable to use the extension on B2B websites beyond LinkedIn

💡 Note: Extension position settings are saved per website. If you move the extension to the left on LinkedIn, it will stay on the left for LinkedIn only. Other sites retain the default right-side position.

Now you're ready to find and save prospects directly from LinkedIn and your CRM. For troubleshooting, see [Why is my extension blank on Chrome?](/user-guide/faqs-and-troubleshooting/why-is-my-extension-blank-on-chrome)
