## 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 crustdata-person-search-9f842506 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Search Crustdata's professional database for all VP of Engineering or CTO profiles at Series B SaaS companies in the United States with at least 500 employees.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to search and discover professional profiles at scale using multi-dimensional criteria such as job title, company, seniority, location, or industry. Prefer this over the Enrich endpoint when you don't have a specific LinkedIn URL or email and need to find new contacts matching a profile. Use this over the Company Search endpoint when the primary entity of interest is a person, not an organization.

## Known failure modes

- Overly broad filters with no results return an empty list
- Rate limiting or quota exceeded returns a 429 error
