A contact enrichment API for B2B records your systems can use
Enrich contact and company workflows with structured B2B lead data, separate API credits, dashboard-tested filters, and export-ready fields for CRM, product, or RevOps systems.
Build the right list for this audience
A contact enrichment API is useful when a CRM, internal tool, product workflow, or RevOps process needs structured B2B contact data instead of a one-time CSV export. Dievio keeps API usage separate from dashboard subscription credits so automated enrichment can be monitored independently.
- RevOps teams filling missing buyer contacts for target accounts.
- Products that need contact data inside a user workflow.
- Agencies automating enrichment for recurring client segments.
- Developers building lead scoring, routing, or CRM completion systems.
- Contact filters
- Title, seniority, department, location
- Company filters
- Domain, industry, employee size, revenue, region
- Field filters
- Email status, phone status, LinkedIn URL coverage
From filters to a useful list
Define enrichment input
Start from account domains, target roles, seniority, region, or a known ICP template that has already been tested in the dashboard.
Set data requirements
Decide which fields are required: email, phone, LinkedIn URL, title, company domain, employee size, industry, and location.
Monitor API credits and results
Use API credit top-ups separately from dashboard credits so enrichment jobs can be capped, logged, and reviewed.
Contact enrichment API checklist
Treat enrichment as a controlled data pipeline, not an unlimited lookup loop.
- Define required and optional fields before implementation.
- Cap results per account, segment, or customer to control credit usage.
- Log matches, misses, dedupe decisions, and downstream sync status.
Example API response shape
A production enrichment workflow should return enough context for dedupe, routing, and audit logs.
- Contact
- name, title, seniority, department, location
- Company
- domain, industry, employee size, revenue band, country
- Signals
- email status, phone status, LinkedIn URL coverage
- Ops
- request id, segment name, credit usage, sync status
When to use API enrichment versus manual export
| Signal | Use when | Avoid when |
|---|---|---|
| Destination | The enriched record must land in a CRM, product workflow, scoring model, or internal system. | A one-time campaign CSV is enough and no downstream system needs automation. |
| Rules | Required fields, result caps, dedupe logic, and fallback behavior are already defined. | The team is still guessing which persona, region, or company segment should be enriched. |
| Monitoring | You can track API credit usage, returned records, misses, and sync status. | Nobody owns logs, caps, retries, or cleanup for automated enrichment jobs. |
Example enrichment request
This is the shape a developer or RevOps owner should define before writing the integration.
{
"segment": "crm_saas_revenue_leaders",
"companyDomains": ["example.com", "northstar.io"],
"titles": ["VP Sales", "Head of Revenue", "RevOps"],
"requiredFields": ["email", "linkedinUrl", "companyDomain"],
"maxContactsPerCompany": 3
}- Credit control
- Cap records per account and log returned leads per request
- Dedupe key
- Use email, LinkedIn URL, or contact + company domain depending on downstream system
Contact enrichment API rollout test
A contact enrichment API page should answer the implementation question: what input goes in, what record comes back, and how the system avoids uncontrolled usage.
| Step | Detail | Outcome |
|---|---|---|
| Request boundary | Define account domain, buyer role, seniority, region, required fields, result cap, and segment name. | Prevents a vague enrichment job from becoming an expensive broad search. |
| Response contract | Map contact, company, field availability, request id, and credit usage into the destination schema. | Makes CRM sync, product display, scoring, and audit logs predictable. |
| Operational owner | Assign monitoring for credits, duplicate records, misses, retry behavior, and downstream sync failures. | Turns enrichment from a one-off script into a controlled data workflow. |
Use enrichment when the destination is a system
If the output needs to flow into a CRM, internal dashboard, product workflow, scoring model, or routing queue, API enrichment is usually cleaner than manual export.
Validate manually before automating
Teams can use Dievio preview counts and dashboard searches to test the segment before turning the same logic into an API workflow.
How credits work
Count previews show totals only and use no credits. A lead search uses 1 credit per returned record. CSV and JSON exports of saved lists use no additional search credits.
