Bulk search

Icypeas provides you a route to launch your bulk search without going to the app!
When using the API, you have to provide:

• the name of your bulk search so that you can find it later on;
• the task to execute on the data;
• the data you want to analyze;

caution

We put limits on the data that we can handle.
Each bulk search launched from the API can not contain more than 5000 items!

Email-Search (task email-search):

The data array should contain rows with three elements:

1. The firstname
2. The lastname
3. The domain or company name

Firstname and/or lastname are optional. You need to put at least one of them, e.g.:
["John", "", "icypeas.com"]

Here is a request for an email-search:

{
  "task": "email-search",
  "name": "My cool email discovery",
  "data": [
    ["John", "Doe", "icypeas.com"],
    ["Charline", "Lestelle", "Google"],
    ["", "Avocado", "yelp.fr"],
    ["Jeanine", "", "Comodoro LLC"]
  ]
}

Email-Verification (task email-verification):

The data array should contain rows with one element: The email address.

Here is a request for an email-verification:

{
  "task": "email-verification",
  "name": "My cool email verification",
  "data": [
    ["john.doe@icypeas.com"],
    ["charline.lestelle@google.com"],
    ["jeanine@comodoro.com"],
  ]
}

Domain-Scan (task domain-search):

The data array should contain rows with one element: The domain or company name.

Here is a request for an domain-search:

{
  "task": "domain-search",
  "name": "My cool domain scan",
  "data": [
    ["icypeas.com"],
    ["google.com"],
    ["yelp.fr"],
    ["Comodoro LLC"],
  ]
}

Using my own ids

Sometimes it is easier to pass your own ids for each item you want to analyze. To do that, you need to use the custom object:

{
  "task": "domain-search",
  "name": "My cool domain scan",
  "data": [
    ["icypeas.com"],
    ["google.com"],
    ["yelp.fr"],
    ["Comodoro LLC"],
  ],
  "custom": {
    "externalIds": ["my-row-1", "my-row-2", "my-row-3", "my-row-4"] 
  }
}

You externalIds array should have the same length as your data array. We do not check your IDs to see if they are uniq, you need to take care of that.
