API reference / People reads

List a page's employees (live)

Written and maintained by The ProspectAPIs team

GET/v1/pages/employees

GET /v1/pages/employees is the ProspectAPIs operation getPageEmployees, in the People reads group of the REST API. List the people who say they currently work at a company page, read fresh, each a person (name, headline, location, profile_ref, profile_url, person_ref). Returns the first 1,000 people per page; page with start. $0.012 per live read. Give the page by its public name or page address. A page that cannot be found is a free 404. Billed per call once the reads are live; while they are not yet on sale the call is free (GET /pricing reports people_reads.available). Cost: Not available yet. Send your API key as a Bearer token in the Authorization header.

The quickstart shows this call in context, next to the first requests most integrations make.

Parameters

An unknown query parameter is refused with a 400 rather than ignored, so a typo never widens a search you pay for.

Responses

Every error answers with the same JSON body, an error string and sometimes a code; the errors page lists each status and when it happens. A per-key 429 carries Retry-After; see rate limits.

200 response fields

The people listed at the page and the page envelope, read fresh. The body is a PeopleReadResult.

Code samples

Each sample sends the same request. Set PROSPECTAPIS_KEY in your environment first. Values come from the spec's examples; replace them with your own.

curl -G https://api.prospectapis.com/v1/pages/employees \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $PROSPECTAPIS_KEY" \
  --data-urlencode "page=page"

const params = new URLSearchParams({ page: "page" });
const res = await fetch(`https://api.prospectapis.com/v1/pages/employees?${params}`, {
  headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${process.env.PROSPECTAPIS_KEY}` },
});
if (!res.ok) throw new Error(`${res.status}: ${(await res.json().catch(() => ({}))).error ?? res.statusText}`);
const data = await res.json();
console.log(data);

import os, requests

res = requests.get(
    "https://api.prospectapis.com/v1/pages/employees",
    headers={"Authorization": f"Bearer {os.environ['PROSPECTAPIS_KEY']}"},
    params={"page": "page"},
    timeout=30,
)
res.raise_for_status()
data = res.json()
print(data)

Billing

Billing reserves before it serves: the call holds what it may cost, serves at most what that hold covers, and refunds the rest when the response closes. Any non-2xx answer refunds the whole hold, so a failed call costs nothing. The response reports your balance in X-Credits-Remaining.
