## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability agents-pubrio-com-look-up-a-person-by-linkedin-url-f4b85afc -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you pull up the professional details for this LinkedIn profile — https://www.linkedin.com/in/king-lai-605382b7 — I need their current job title, company, and contact info if available.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you have a specific LinkedIn profile URL and need structured, real-time professional data for that individual. It is preferable over search-based endpoints when you already know the exact LinkedIn URL and want deterministic, direct lookup rather than ranked search results. Choose this over the Pubrio person-by-ID endpoint when you only have the LinkedIn URL and not a Pubrio internal ID.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or malformed LinkedIn URL — endpoint requires URL beginning with 'http' and containing 'linkedin.com/in/' or 'linkedin.com/pub/'
- Profile not found in Pubrio's database — returns null data object
- LinkedIn profile is private or deleted — no data returned
- Rate limit exceeded or insufficient credits — payment or quota error
- Network timeout during real-time data retrieval

## How this service works

Pubrio detects when companies enter new markets and returns the company and people data behind each move. Expansion signals (local hiring, new offices and entities, localized ads, news, cloud hosting) are typed, dated and tied to evidence across 200+ markets, with strong coverage of Asia-Pacific and other markets that Western-built datasets miss. The graph covers 800M+ companies and 560M+ contacts from 50+ local data sources, refreshed daily. Search companies, people, job postings, news, ads and cloud footprints with filters or a plain-language query; look up records by domain, LinkedIn URL or Pubrio id; find lookalike companies and people; read hiring, news, advertising and cloud insights for one company; and reveal verified work emails, personal emails and phone numbers. Each call costs the number of credits listed on its endpoint. This server is a pay-per-use, transparent proxy in front of Pubrio's own API: it handles identity, payment, and proxying. Agents can purchase autonomously or with their human's approval. The complete verified paid surface is listed at /openapi.json, the source of truth for available operations. Each operation here carries its live price in x-payment-info. Use the operations and details here when they meet your needs. Filtered specs contain only matching operations; if you cannot find what you need here, use search or the service catalog. The live catalog at /manifest.json is authoritative for prices and any free included units (prices[].includedUnits) - some meters include free usage per account before any charge, reserved for agents claimed by a human with a verified email.

## Output

Returns a data object containing the person's professional profile as retrieved in real time, typically including name, current job title, current company, location, employment history, and potentially verified contact information such as work email or phone number.
