Introducing Enhanced Functionality in the Query Builder Tool!

We are excited to announce the latest update to our Query Builder tool, a user-friendly, low-code solution for building Person and Company API queries.ย This update brings new features that enhance your query-building experience and provide greater flexibility in retrieving the data you need.

What's New?

  • "OR"ย Statements: You can now add a group followed by the logical operator (AND, OR) to determine how the rules within the group will be combined. For example, if you want to match profiles that satisfy at least one rule within the group, select OR.
  • Output SQL Queries:ย In addition to outputting ESQuery,ย Python, cURL, and drop-in code for our JS, Python, Ruby and Go SDKs, the query builder now supports SQL.ย 


Where can I find it?

Sign up for a free API key and access the tool through the API dashboard. Detailed walkthroughs and comprehensive documentation are available to guide you along the way.

Introducing the Data Stats Tool

The Data Stats Tool provides a no-code way to explore our data coverage for your enrichment needs. You can access it for free through the API dashboard.

How it works

Use cases

  • Assess data coverage: Easily download a report with the match rate and field fill rates for a Person or Company batch enrichment.
  • Anticipate enrichment volume: For both the Company and Person Enrichment APIs you only pay for API calls that return a successful match. For this reason, you can use match rate of a batch to estimate the credits you'll need. For example, if 90% of 1,000 records return a 200 match response code then you will need 900 credits.

The tool generates a free data stats report to preview batch enrichment coverage. To access the full report, with enriched field values please contact a data consultant. View the documentation to learn more.
