## 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 contactout-email-enrich-591d6998
```

Example prompt: I have an email address — john.smith@acme.com — can you look up that person's full professional profile, including their phone number and LinkedIn, using ContactOut?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you have only an email address and need to identify the person behind it, retrieve their contact details, or enrich a CRM lead record. Prefer this over LinkedIn-based enrichment when you lack a LinkedIn URL but have an email. Ideal for sales prospecting, recruiting outreach, and contact deduplication workflows.

## Known failure modes

- Email address not found in ContactOut database — returns empty or no-match response
- Invalid or malformed email address — returns validation error
- Rate limit exceeded — returns 429 error
- Authentication failure — returns 401 if API key is missing or invalid
- Partial data returned — profile exists but some fields (e.g. phone) may be absent
