Our Retrieve API is built to remove complexity from today‘s data.
Find PDL IDs
PDL IDs are provided anywhere we return person profiles. For example, person profiles from the Person Enrichment API, and Person Search API all contain PDL IDs.
Query Person Retrieve API
Provide the PDL ID for the record you would like to send to the Person Retrieve API.
Get your results
Access the best matching result containing a standardized entity record with a unique identifier. Use the unique identifier to build precise queries for the Person or Company Search APIs.
