Find People Using Filters
Apollo offers a highly accurate database of hundreds of millions of people, enabling you to find and connect with your ideal customers across the world. Apollo API enables you to find the prospects most likely to benefit from your product or service through targeted search filters.
Follow this scenario to see how Apollo API query parameters can be used, including to search for Sales Directors based on the West Coast of the US.

Enrich Your Own People Data
Apollo's database includes information for hundreds of millions of prospects. By providing basic details such as an email address or name, you can retrieve people data from Apollo API to supplement your own data.
Use Apollo API with an email address alone, or with the combination of a name and company domain. Both scenarios show the valuable data that can be pulled for a person in Apollo.

Retrieve Mobile Phone Numbers for Contacts
By default, Apollo doesn't provide mobile phone numbers for contacts. However, with basic details such as an email address or name, Apollo API enables you to retrieve all of a contact's phone numbers, including mobile phone numbers.

Enrich Contact Emails and Phone Numbers with Waterfall Enrichment
Apollo API enables you to run waterfall enrichment, which automatically searches Apollo first, then your configured third-party data providers, to find missing email addresses and phone numbers for a person.
When waterfall enrichment is enabled, Apollo returns an immediate response with available people data and a waterfall enrichment request status. Final enrichment results are delivered asynchronously to your configured webhook.

Convert Enriched People to Contacts
When you use Apollo API to enrich your own people data and pull mobile phone numbers, you likely consume credits as part of your workflow. If you call Apollo API to enrich data for the same people again in the future, you potentially consume more credits to access the same data you previously accessed.
To avoid consuming credits unnecessarily, use Apollo API to convert enriched people into contacts. A contact is a person that you have added to your organization's Apollo account, which means their data becomes permanently accessible to your organization.

Retrieve LinkedIn Profiles for Prospects
Apollo API enables you to retrieve LinkedIn profile links for prospects as part of your search and enrichment workflows. Use people search and enrichment endpoints to identify prospects, enrich their records, and access LinkedIn profile URLs when available.
