# Find LinkedIn Profiles from a List of Email Addresses

**Use case:** 

Turns email addresses into people. You provide a list of emails; you get one row per matched address with name, job title, company, location and LinkedIn profile URL. It looks people up and does not verify whether an address is deliverable.

## Input

```json
{
  "items": [
    "jane@stripe.com",
    "jane@shopify.com"
  ],
  "limit": 25,
  "includeAudit": false
}
```

## Output

```json
{
  "email": {
    "label": "Email",
    "format": "string"
  },
  "fullName": {
    "label": "Name",
    "format": "string"

## FAQ

### What does the reverse email lookup task return?

The reverse email lookup task returns one row per matched email with full name, job title, company, headline, location, start year, tenure and LinkedIn profile URL.

### What input is needed to look up people by email?

For the reverse email lookup, provide a list of email addresses. Formats such as Name <address> or mailto: are cleaned, and entries that are not emails are skipped.

### How do I run the reverse email lookup task on a schedule or send results to Google Sheets?

Start the reverse email lookup task from the Apify console, API or a schedule, then export the dataset as CSV, JSON or Excel and import it into Google Sheets, or connect an integration.

### Does reverse email lookup verify that an address works?

The reverse email lookup task identifies the person behind an address. It does not check deliverability and does not find new emails, so pair it with a verifier or finder.

### What happens when an email matches several people?

If an address in the reverse email lookup fits several people and the best guess does not suit the address, the row is withheld rather than guessed and a notice is returned.

## How to integrate an Actor?

This Task's input is already configured above. Use it as-is rather than inventing a new one.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For full API examples (JavaScript, Python, CLI, MCP, OpenAPI), see this Task's Actor page: https://apify.com/b2bdata/person-by-email.md

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).
