Choose View Paths from a person result to open the warm-path review.

Review in this order

1

Confirm the target

Verify the person’s name, role, company, and LinkedIn profile when those details are available. Stop if the identity is ambiguous.
2

Identify the route

A direct route means the person is already represented as your contact. A brokered route names another person as the connector. Confirm that the route shown matches your real-world understanding.
3

Read the evidence

Review the relationship label, source context, mutual count, path explanation, and last-updated context shown. Not every path has every field.
4

Check alternatives

When other routes are available, compare their connectors and evidence. The top-ranked path is a recommendation, not a command.
5

Decide whether to act

Save the path, gather more context, or prepare an introduction request. If the evidence is weak, warm the relationship or find another route first.

Interpreting path strength

Displayed scores and labels combine signals available to the product. Use them to compare routes within the current result, not as a universal measure of trust.
A high path score does not establish consent, availability, or current relationship quality. Confirm those facts with the people involved.

When no verified path appears

The current relationship data did not produce a usable path for this target. Return to People search, review source status, or gather more relationship context outside Introd. Do not convert a public-profile match into a warm path without evidence.
