Use this endpoint to retrieve asynchronous phone or waterfall enrichment results for your team's Apollo workspace. You can poll for results instead of receiving a webhook, or retrieve a result when the original callback wasn't received.
Key concepts
| Webhooks and polling | A webhook sends completed enrichment results to a URL you provide. Polling lets your system request those results from Apollo. To use polling without a webhook, set poll_only to true on the enrichment request and omit webhook_url. |
| Identifying the request | People enrichment and bulk people enrichment return a request_id for asynchronous results. Pass that value unchanged to poll webhook result. It identifies the enrichment request, rather than a person or contact, and can be positive or negative. |
| Pending and completed results | A pending result returns 404 with error_code: result_pending and a retry_after_seconds interval. Wait before checking again. A completed result returns 200 with the result payload. |
| Result availability | Results remain available for thirty days after the webhook was triggered. An unknown, expired, or invalid request ID requires a different response from your system than a result that's still processing. |

Example workflows
Retrieve phone enrichment results by polling
Request available phone numbers for a person, then retrieve the completed results without configuring a webhook.
- Call people enrichment with identifying information for the person,
reveal_phone_numberset totrue, andpoll_onlyset totrue. Omitwebhook_url. - Retain the
request_idfrom the enrichment response. - Pass that value as
request_idto poll webhook result. - If the response indicates
result_pending, wait for the returnedretry_after_secondsinterval and check again. When the result returns200, use the available phone data in your system.
Stop polling if the response indicates request_id_unknown, request_id_expired, or invalid_request_id. Check an unknown or invalid ID against the original response. If the result has expired, submit a new enrichment request.
The same polling process applies to asynchronous results from bulk people enrichment and waterfall enrichment requests.
