Overview
This node integrates with the FindyMail API to find and verify email addresses, phone numbers, and employee information based on LinkedIn profiles, names, company domains, or email addresses. It is useful for sales, recruiting, marketing, or any scenario where you need to enrich contact data or validate communication details.
For the Find Email From Linkedin operation specifically, the node takes a LinkedIn profile URL and returns the associated email address found via the FindyMail service. This can help automate lead generation or contact discovery workflows by extracting verified emails directly from LinkedIn profiles.
Practical Example
- Input a LinkedIn profile URL of a potential client or candidate.
- The node queries FindyMail to retrieve the person's email address.
- Use the output email in follow-up automation such as sending personalized outreach emails.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Linkedin URL | The LinkedIn profile URL of the person whose email address you want to find. |
| Additional Options | Optional settings including: • Webhook URL - URL to receive the result asynchronously (optional). |
Output
The node outputs JSON data containing the response from the FindyMail API for the given LinkedIn URL. The structure typically includes the found email address and possibly additional metadata about the contact.
Example output JSON structure:
{
"email": "johndoe@example.com",
"first_name": "John",
"last_name": "Doe",
"linkedin_url": "https://www.linkedin.com/in/johndoe",
"source": "LinkedIn",
"confidence_score": 0.95
}
If a webhook URL is provided in additional options, the result may also be sent asynchronously to that URL.
Dependencies
- Requires an active FindyMail API key credential configured in n8n.
- Internet access to call the FindyMail API endpoints.
- Optional webhook URL for asynchronous result delivery.
Troubleshooting
- Missing Required Parameter Error: If the LinkedIn URL is not provided, the node will throw an error indicating it is required. Ensure the input property is correctly set.
- API Authentication Errors: If the API key is invalid or missing, requests will fail. Verify the API key credential configuration.
- Empty or Invalid LinkedIn URL: Providing an incorrect or malformed LinkedIn URL may result in no data found or errors from the API.
- Webhook Delivery Issues: If using a webhook URL, ensure the endpoint is reachable and properly handles incoming POST requests.
