Context API / Retrieve Person

Context.dev tool context-dev-people-retrieve on looot: input fields, $0.05 per call, output shape, and code to run it with curl, JavaScript or Python.

Retrieve and normalize a person profile from identifiers. Education and experience entries include LinkedIn-derived organization data (website, logo, employee counts, followers, headquarters, and Context.dev industry classification) when available.

Tool id: context-dev-people-retrieve
Provider: Context.dev
Job: Retrieve people (people.retrieve)
Price: $0.05 per call. A call that fails at the provider costs $0.

Inputs

Name	Type	Required	Description
`identifiers`	string	yes	Known identifiers for the person. At least one identifier is required.
`tags`	array	no	Optional tags for tracking usage. Up to 20 tags, each 1 to 50 characters.
`timeoutMS`	integer	no	Optional timeout in milliseconds for the request. If the request takes longer than this value, it will be aborted with a 408 status code. Maximum allowed value is 300000ms (5 minutes).

Output

The run’s result holds the provider’s answer. Signed in, looot inspect context-dev-people-retrieve prints its fields.

Run it

Every call needs your API token in LOOOT_TOKEN; Sign in shows how to get one. Each run also needs a new idempotency key, so a retry never pays twice. With wait: 30 the answer comes back inline when the run ends within 30 seconds. Otherwise you get the running run back: poll GET /v1/runs/<runId>.

Example input with placeholder values:

curl -X POST "https://api.looot.ai/v1/runs" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $LOOOT_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Idempotency-Key: $(uuidgen)" \
  -d '{"endpointId":"context-dev-people-retrieve","input":{"identifiers":"<identifiers>","tags":["production","team-alpha"]},"wait":30}'

const response = await fetch("https://api.looot.ai/v1/runs", {
  method: "POST",
  headers: {
    Authorization: `Bearer ${process.env.LOOOT_TOKEN}`,
    "Content-Type": "application/json",
    "Idempotency-Key": crypto.randomUUID(),
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    endpointId: "context-dev-people-retrieve",
    input: {
      identifiers: "<identifiers>",
      tags: ["production", "team-alpha"],
    },
    wait: 30,
  }),
});
const run = await response.json();
console.log(run.status, run.result);
