# Find contacts from identifiers

`POST /enrichments/by-identifier`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.instalent.io/api/v1`
- URL: `https://api.instalent.io/api/v1/enrichments/by-identifier`
- Auth: HTTP bearer and API key in header `X-Customer-Key`

Contacts for people who did not come from our search. Send each person with one or more identifiers: a LinkedIn profile URL, an email address, or a name together with a company. A phone number is not an identifier and is refused. This creates an ordinary enrichment job, so poll GET /enrichments/{id}, stream its events, or wait for the enrichment.completed webhook exactly as you would for the other route; GET /enrichments/{id}/results keys each answer by your own ref instead of a profile id.

## Headers

- `Idempotency-Key` string
