Enrichment

Contact resolution
POST /v1/enrichRequires people:enrich. Identify the person with exactly one of linkedin_url,
person_id, email (reverse lookup), or name plus company_domain.

-d '{
"linkedin_url": "https://www.linkedin.com/in/example",
"fields": ["work_email", "personal_email", "phone"]
}'Every requested field is returned, even when it is not found:
{
"data": {
"work_email": {
"value": "example@company.com",
"status": "found",
"confidence": "verified",
"source": "fullenrich",
"last_seen": "2026-08-31T00:00:00.000Z"
},
"phone": {
"value": null,
"status": "not_found",
"confidence": null,
"source": null,
"last_seen": null
}
},
"meta": {
"usage": {
"billed": ["work_email"],
"free": [],
"not_found": ["phone"]
}
}
}status is unavailable for a provider or transport failure, so it is never
silently reported as a clean miss. Only successful reveals are billed.
The legacy enrichments lightweight LinkedIn/contact contract remains supported
for existing clients. Deep public evidence lives only at /v1/person, which
provides durable runs and 90-day organization-wide rereads.
Partial success
One field can fail without failing the whole person. Unresolved fields return null, and transport or provider failures appear in meta.warnings. Clean not-found fields and failed fields are not charged.
Identity first
Use the strongest known identity anchor available. A canonical LinkedIn URL is safer than a name alone, especially for common names.
Errors and limits
| Condition | Status and code |
|---|---|
| LinkedIn URL or supported identity is missing | 422 identity_required or 422 validation_failed |
Focused enrichment uses the organization and API-key per-minute buckets; it has no additional route cap. A field-level provider failure normally returns a successful response with that field set to null and a stable entry in meta.warnings. See Errors & rate limits.
