## 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-linkedin-profile-contact-lookup-7e063ab3
```

Example prompt: Can you find the work email address and phone number for the person at this LinkedIn profile: linkedin.com/in/janedoe?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you have a LinkedIn profile URL and need to find an email or phone number for direct outreach. It is ideal for sales enrichment, recruiting, and journalist/researcher workflows where LinkedIn is the source of identity but you need off-platform contact info. Prefer this over generic people-search APIs when you already have a LinkedIn URL as the identifier.

## Known failure modes

- Profile not found in ContactOut database — no contact data returned
- Invalid or malformed LinkedIn profile URL — request error
- Profile exists but no email or phone data available — empty result
- Rate limit or payment failure — 402 or 429 error
- Private or restricted LinkedIn profile yields no results
