Tools Reference

Most tools are read-only and consume no credits. Three tools consume credits: person_lookup, profile_company_lookup, and company_lookup. These also add resolved contacts and companies to your My Contacts list.


person_search

Search RocketReach's database of 700M+ professional profiles by professional attributes. Returns matching profile summaries — name, current title, current employer, location, and profile ID. Does not return contact info (emails, phones); use person_lookup for that.

No credits consumed.

Search signals

A few search facets filter by recent activity signals rather than static attributes. Each takes a value of the form Category::time_window — an exact category string, then ::, then exactly one time window. Pass an array to match any of several signals.

Time windows

  • News and job-posting signals: one_week, one_month, three_months, six_months, one_year
  • Job-change signals: one_week, one_month, three_months (job-change data only goes back three months)

company_job_posting_signal / job_posting_signal — hiring activity

The company is actively hiring for a department. Example: Engineering Roles::one_month. Categories:

Accounting Roles, Administration Roles, Business Development Roles, Corporate Communications Roles, Customer Services Roles, Engineering Roles, Facilities Management Roles, Finance Roles, Human Resources Roles, Information Technology Roles, Legal Roles, Logistics Roles, Machine Learning Roles, Marketing Roles, Operations Roles, Procurement Roles, Production or Manufacturing Roles, Public Relations Roles, Quality Assurance Roles, Recruiting Roles, Research and Development Roles, Sales Roles, Strategy Roles.


person_lookup

Look up contact information for a specific person. Returns emails, phone numbers, and profile metadata. Charges credits and adds the contact to your My Contacts list with default tags (MCP Lookups plus the AI client name) and any tags you pass.

Consumes 1 lookup credit, plus 1 person export credit.

The lookup is asynchronous. If the result is not yet ready, the tool returns status: "pending" with a profile_id to poll via check_person_status. Polling is free.

Input

Provide at least one identifier: id, email, linkedin_url, npi_number, or name + current_employer.

ParameterTypeDescription
idintegerRocketReach profile ID
emailstringKnown email address
linkedin_urlstringLinkedIn profile URL
namestringPerson's name. Requires current_employer
current_employerstringCurrent company name. Used with name
titlestringJob title — disambiguates when name + employer match multiple people
npi_numberintegerNPI number (US healthcare). Standalone identifier
lookup_typestringForce a specific credit type: standard_lookup (email only), premium_lookup (email + phone), phone_lookup (email + phone), or person_enrich (profile metadata only, no contact info). Omit to use your configured order
tagsstring[]Additional tags to apply to the contact
metadataobjectKey/value metadata stored with the lookup. Values: strings or integers

Response — complete

  "profile_id": 101,
  "status": "complete",
  "name": "Ada Lovelace",
  "current_title": "Engineer",
  "current_employer": "Acme",
  "emails": [{ "email": "[email protected]", "grade": "A" }],

  "profile_id": 101,
  "retry_after_seconds": 3,

}

Call check_person_status with the profile_id once a few seconds have passed. Average resolution time is ~5 seconds.


profile_company_lookup

Retrieve contact information for a person and full details for their current company in a single call. The person side is asynchronous (returns pending/complete like person_lookup); the company side resolves immediately.

Consumes 1 lookup credit + 1 person export credit + 1 company export credit.

Adds the resolved contact and company to your My Contacts list.

Same parameters as person_lookup: one of id, email, linkedin_url, npi_number, or name + current_employer as identifier, plus optional title, lookup_type, tags, and metadata.
