Person Enrichment API

A data append API takes a record you already have, such as an email address, phone number, LinkedIn URL, or a name with a company or location, finds the matching person, and adds the fields you are missing. The Person Enrichment API is a data append API for person records: one request in, one enriched profile out, billed only when a match is found.

Each match returns a profile with identity and demographics, current employment, work emails and phone numbers, location, work history, education, certifications, skills and languages, and social profiles, plus a confidence level for the match.

Yes. Send each email to POST /person/enrich, or up to 50 people per request to the bulk endpoint, and every match comes back with the person's current job title and company, plus work history, location, and contact data. Hashed emails work too, through the email_hash parameter. One credit is one record returned, so a no-match costs nothing.

The Enrichment API supports multiple matching methods including unique identifiers (email, phone, LinkedIn), social profiles, and name-based lookups with location, company, school, or job title context. The API automatically selects the best matching strategy based on the parameters you provide.

Every match includes a confidence level of high, moderate, or low. Confidence reflects how certain we are that we found the right person, based on the parameters matched and the quality of the match. You can use the min_confidence parameter to filter results below a threshold.

If no match is found, the API returns HTTP 404. This means no person in our database matched the parameters you provided. Try providing additional identifying information for better results.

Yes. Send a SHA-256, SHA-1, or MD5 hash in the email_hash parameter and you never need to send the plaintext address. Hash the address the way profiles are indexed (lowercased, with Gmail dots and provider plus tags removed); the free Email Hash Generator at datalegion.ai/tools/email-hash and the Email Hashing API both do this for you.

The Enrichment API has a default rate limit of 100 requests per minute per API key. Higher limits are available for enterprise customers. Each request enriches one record. For bulk enrichment needs, consider our data licensing option which provides the full dataset for local matching.
