ContactOut Node: Agent Node Documentation

The ContactOut Node looks up people and company data: headcounts, searches, contact details, work and personal emails, phone numbers, and decision makers. The node is a tool connector: your agent chooses one of 14 actions and supplies the arguments at run time. ContactOut is a direct REST integration, not an MCP connection, and the platform holds the API key, so there is nothing to connect per user.

Parameters

The agent picks the action and supplies its arguments at run time.

Required Arguments

Action	Required arguments
`people_count`	At least one people-search filter (for example `job_title`, `company`, `location`, `skills`).
`people_search`	At least one people-search filter.
`people_enrich`	One identifier: `linkedin_url`, `email`, `phone`, `full_name`, or `first_name` plus `last_name`.
`linkedin_enrich`	`profile` (LinkedIn profile URL).
`email_enrich`	`email`.
`contact_info`	`profile` (LinkedIn profile URL).
`decision_makers`	One identifier: `linkedin_url`, `domain`, or `name`.
`company_search`	At least one company-search filter (for example `name`, `domain`, `industry`, `location`).
`company_domain`	`domains` (non-empty list of domains, maximum 30).
`email_to_linkedin`	`email`.
`email_verify`	`email`.
`personal_email_status`	`profile` (LinkedIn profile URL).
`work_email_status`	`profile` (LinkedIn profile URL).
`phone_status`	`profile` (LinkedIn profile URL).

Optional Arguments

Action	Optional arguments
`people_count`	Additional people-search filters; narrower filters reduce the count.
`people_search`	`page_size` (default 5, clamped to 1–25), `reveal_info` (default false).
`people_enrich`	Any further identifiers or people-search filters to disambiguate the match.
`linkedin_enrich`	None.
`email_enrich`	None.
`contact_info`	`include_phone` (default false), `email_type`.
`decision_makers`	`reveal_info` (default false).
`company_search`	Additional company-search filters; narrower filters reduce the result set.
`company_domain`	None; send at most 30 domains per call.
`email_to_linkedin`	None.
`email_verify`	None.
`personal_email_status`	None.
`work_email_status`	None.
`phone_status`	None.

Practical Use Cases

List building: Start with people_count to size a filter, then people_search to page through matches.
Contact enrichment: Enrich a known profile or email with people_enrich, linkedin_enrich, or email_enrich, then fetch work and personal addresses with contact_info.
Lead qualification: Verify a work email with email_verify and check its status with work_email_status before adding it to a sequence.
Account mapping: Run company_search or company_domain to find accounts, then decision_makers to find the people worth contacting.
Reverse lookup: Turn a known email into a LinkedIn profile with email_to_linkedin.

Notes

Actions that reveal contact details consume ContactOut credits. Size filters with people_count before paging through people_search.
page_size is clamped to 1–25 whatever the agent sends; keep pages small while testing. \
