Crawl a New Profile

Submits a public profile for crawling: profile metadata plus its recent posts, stats and thumbnails, after which it stays tracked and appears in searches. Asynchronous. Returns a job reference for get_job_status. If the profile is already tracked, this returns immediately without charging a full crawl. Credits are refunded automatically when a crawl fails.

Cost: 40 credits per call. Asynchronous: poll GET /api/v1/jobs/{jobRef}.
