Overview
The node integrates with the ProspectPro API to retrieve detailed information about a specific prospect. It is designed to fetch data for a single prospect identified by their unique ID. This operation is useful in scenarios where you want to enrich your workflow with up-to-date prospect details, such as contact information, company data, or other metadata stored in ProspectPro.
Practical examples include:
- Fetching a prospect's profile before sending a personalized email campaign.
- Retrieving prospect details to update CRM records.
- Using prospect data to trigger conditional logic in automation workflows.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Prospect ID | The unique identifier of the prospect to retrieve. This is a required string input. |
| Detailed Output | A boolean flag indicating whether to include additional request details in the output. When enabled, the output contains extra data that requires parsing to extract the main prospect information. Default is false. |
Output
The node outputs JSON data representing the retrieved prospect's information from the ProspectPro API. The structure typically includes fields describing the prospect's attributes such as name, contact details, company info, and other relevant metadata.
If the "Detailed Output" property is enabled, the output will also contain additional request metadata, which may require further processing to isolate the core prospect data.
No binary data output is produced by this node.
Dependencies
- Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the ProspectPro API.
- The base URL for API requests is
https://api.prospectpro.nl/v1.2. - No additional environment variables are needed beyond the API authentication setup.
Troubleshooting
- Missing or invalid Prospect ID: Since the Prospect ID is required, ensure it is provided and correctly formatted. An empty or incorrect ID will cause the API request to fail.
- API authentication errors: Verify that the API key credential is valid and has sufficient permissions.
- Unexpected output format when Detailed Output is enabled: Enabling detailed output adds extra metadata to the response. Users must parse this output carefully to extract the actual prospect data.
- Network or API downtime: If the API endpoint is unreachable, check network connectivity and ProspectPro service status.
