There are two ways to see which leads have accepted your connection request in HeyReach - directly inside the campaign via Lead Analytics, or by exporting a CSV with the full status breakdown for every lead.
Method 1 - lead analytics Inside a campaign
The lead analytics tab gives you a live view of every lead in a campaign, including their current status and last action taken.
How to find accepted connections:
Open the campaign you want to review.
Click the Lead Analytics tab at the top of the campaign view.
Click Filters and add a filter for Sender Status.
Select Connection Accepted.
The list will update to show only the leads who have accepted your connection request, along with who sent it, the last action taken, and when.
You can also see at a glance which leads have other statuses alongside accepted connections:
Sender Status | What it means |
Connection Accepted | The lead accepted your connection request |
Connection Sent | A connection request was sent but not yet accepted |
Pending | The lead has not yet reached the connection request step |
Failed | The action failed - hover over the lead for the reason |
💡 You can also search for a specific lead by name using the Search Leads bar at the top of the Lead Analytics view to quickly check an individual's status.
Method 2 - export as CSV
For a full downloadable list of all leads and their statuses, use the CSV export. This is the best option if you want to sort, filter, or share the data outside of HeyReach.
How to export:
Go to the Lead Analytics tab in your campaign.
Click Export as CSV in the top right corner.
The file will download with a row for every lead in the campaign.
Key columns in the export:
Column | What it contains |
Lead first name / last name | The lead's name |
Lead LinkedIn URL | Direct link to the lead's LinkedIn profile |
Lead company name / position | Company and role from the lead's profile |
Sender first name / last name | Which LinkedIn sender handled this lead |
Last action taken | The most recent action (e.g. CONNECTION_REQUEST, IS_CONNECTION) |
Last action time | Date and time of the last action |
Sender Status | Current connection status - filter this column for CONNECTION_ACCEPTED to see all accepted leads |
Tags | Any tags applied to the lead |
Auto-tag | Auto-tag classification (Interested, Not Interested, Generic) if generated |
Failed Reason Code | Populated if the lead has a Failed status - shows why the action failed |
✅ To find all accepted connections in the CSV: Open the file in Excel or Google Sheets, filter the Sender Status column by CONNECTION_ACCEPTED, and you will have a clean list of every lead who has connected with you in that campaign.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I see accepted connections across all campaigns at once - not just one campaign?
Not directly in a single view - Lead Analytics and CSV export are both scoped to one campaign at a time. To see accepted connections across multiple campaigns, export a CSV from each campaign and combine them in a spreadsheet.
A lead accepted but their status still shows as Connection Sent - why?
HeyReach syncs connection status regularly but there can be a short delay. Try using the Re-sync button on the sender's LinkedIn account to force a refresh. If the status does not update after a few hours, contact support.
What does "IS_CONNECTION" mean in the Last Action Taken column of the CSV?
IS_CONNECTION means HeyReach performed a connection check on the lead to verify their connection status. This is a standard step in the campaign sequence and does not mean a connection request was sent - it is just a status check.
Can I message accepted connections directly from the Lead Analytics view?
You can click on any lead in the Lead Analytics view to open their lead drawer, which includes a link to their conversation in the Unibox. From there you can send a direct message to accepted connections.
