## Parameters

| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|-----------|------|----------|-------------|
| `linkedinUrls` | array | No | LinkedIn profile URLs of the people to find contact details for, one person per URL. |
| `people` | array | No | One person per entry, written as full name, then a comma, then the company name or website domain. Example: Jason Fried, basecamp.com or Satya Nadella, Microsoft. Each entry is one lookup. |
| `fullNames` | array | No | Legacy API input, kept for existing integrations; use People instead. Full names of the people to look up, paired by position with Companies. |
| `companies` | array | No | Legacy API input that goes with Full Names; use People instead. One company name or domain for every name, or one per name in the same order. Example: Full Names [Jason Fried, Satya Nadella] with Companies [basecamp.com, microsoft.com]. |

| `includePhone` | boolean | No | When true, also attempts to find a phone number for the person at extra cost. |

## Example

`?wait=true` holds the request open until the run finishes (up to 60s) and returns the rows inline: one request, no polling.

```bash
curl -X POST "https://api.mindcase.co/v1/data/people/contact-finder/run?wait=true" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer mk_live_YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"params":{}}'
```

```python
import requests

resp = requests.post(
    "https://api.mindcase.co/v1/data/people/contact-finder/run",
    params={"wait": "true"},
    headers={"Authorization": "Bearer mk_live_YOUR_API_KEY"},
    json={"params": {}},
)
rows = resp.json()["data"]
```

## Longer runs

If the run is still going at the 60s ceiling you get back `{ job_id, status: "running" }` instead of rows (same if the result is over 100 rows; those come back `truncated`). Poll with that `job_id`:

```bash
# 1) check status
curl https://api.mindcase.co/v1/jobs/JOB_ID \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer mk_live_YOUR_API_KEY"

# 2) when status == completed, fetch the rows
curl https://api.mindcase.co/v1/jobs/JOB_ID/results \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer mk_live_YOUR_API_KEY"
```
