## FAQ

### What does the prospect list phone enrichment task return?

The prospect list phone enrichment task returns each number on file as a row with phone type, full name, job title, company, location and the profile URL it came from.

### What input is needed to enrich a prospect list with phones?

To enrich a prospect list, provide LinkedIn profile URLs from your CRM. Bare slugs also work, and you can set a limit on the number of rows delivered.

### How do I run the prospect list phone enrichment task on a schedule or send results to Google Sheets?

Start the prospect list phone enrichment 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.

### How do SDR teams load results into a dialer?

SDR teams run the prospect list phone task, export the dataset as CSV and import it into their dialer or CRM, matching rows back to contacts through the profile URL column.

### Why are some prospects missing from the results?

Prospects without a phone number on file are left out of the prospect list phone results and listed as misses, so a shorter result than your input list is normal.

## 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/phone-number-finder.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`).
