LinkedIn email finder: get a work email from a profile URL

LinkedIn Email Finder takes a public LinkedIn profile URL and returns the verified work email for that person when one exists. Use it when you have the profile link but not the person's name and company domain, which is what Email Enrichment needs.


What it tells you


  • The verified work email tied to that profile, when one is found.
  • Whether a match was made, so a profile with no verified email comes back as an explicit no.
  • The person's full name and job title.
  • The company they work at and that company's website domain.
  • The person's city, region and country, plus the company's location.
  • A suggested next action, such as verifying the address or enriching the contact further.


What you need to provide



What it costs


30 credits per lookup. This one is success-based: you are charged 0 credits when no verified email is found. Live per-product costs are shown on the Billing page in your dashboard.


How to run it


  • In the dashboard: LinkedIn Email Finder
  • From your code: POST /v1/linkedin-email-finder, then see the Developer Hub at app.1lookup.io/developer-hub.


Good to know


  • Results are point-in-time. People change roles and companies retire addresses, so an address found today can stop working later.
  • A miss is the slow case, because the search runs to exhaustion before giving up. Give the call a generous timeout, otherwise you will abandon free no-match answers you have already waited for.
  • The full URL and the bare vanity username resolve to the same lookup, so a link with tracking parameters on the end is not a second charge. Repeat lookups on the same profile inside the 7-day cache window are served from cache and are not charged again.
  • If you want job title, seniority and employer alongside the email, B2B Contact Append takes the same LinkedIn profile URL.
  • Names, job titles and work emails are personal data. Use them for legitimate business purposes only.
