Response Fields

*

TypeDescription
anyThe matched company profile in the format described in our Company Schema.

The PDL profile for the company that matches the Enrichment API request. Any profile field that we do not have data for will have a null value.

Unlike our other APIs, the profile fields for the Company Enrichment API are NOT contained in a top-level data object.


status

TypeDescription
IntegerThe API response code.

likelihood

TypeDescription
IntegerHow confident we are that the returned profile is the same as the company you requested. Will be an integer between 1 and 10.

You can control the minimum likelihood score that a response must have in order to count as a match by setting the min_likelihood parameter in the API request.

We assign every match that the API finds during the enrichment process a likelihood score, to represent our confidence that the profile returned is the same as the profile requested. A score of 1 represents a very low confidence level while a score of 10 represents the highest degree of confidence. The likelihood score is logarithmic, so a response that returns a likelihood score of 2 will have roughly a 10-30% chance of being the person requested.

For example, enriching "John Smith, Inc." in "New York" is too vague for us to confidently say which of our profiles is the exact John Smith Inc. that you requested. However, if you were to attach a website, stock ticker, and street address to the request and they matched our data, we would be highly confident that we are returning the correct John Smith Inc.


matched

TypeDescription
Array (String)Every query input from the request that matched this profile.

IMPORTANT: This field will only be included in the response if the include_if_matched flag is set to true.

See the include_if_matched input parameter for more details.
