Output

Shape of the run’s result, checked against 2 real answers:

{ meta: { cost, total, credits, perPage, lastPage, firstPage, currentPage, freeRequest, maxScrollResultsReached }, companies: { meta: { score, mysqlId, syncedAt, similarity }, urls: { registrar }, about: { name, industry, nameAlts: string[], languages: string[], nameLegal, industries: string[], yearFounded, businessType, totalEmployees, yearFoundedPlace, totalEmployeesExact }, assets: { cover: { ... }, logoSquare: { ... } }, domain: { tld, state, domain, status, registrar, domainName }, socials: { github: { ... }, twitter: { ... }, youtube: { ... }, facebook: { ... }, linkedin: { ... }, instag... ...

The shape is cut here. Signed in, looot inspect thecompaniesapi-companies-get prints all of 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":"thecompaniesapi-companies-get","input":{},"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: "thecompaniesapi-companies-get",
    input: {},
    wait: 30,
  }),
});
const run = await response.json();
console.log(run.status, run.result);

import os
import uuid

import requests

response = requests.post(
    "https://api.looot.ai/v1/runs",
    headers={
        "Authorization": f"Bearer {os.environ['LOOOT_TOKEN']}",
        "Idempotency-Key": str(uuid.uuid4()),
    },
    json={
        "endpointId": "thecompaniesapi-companies-get",
        "input": {},
        "wait": 30,
    },
    timeout=90,
)
run = response.json()
print(run["status"], run.get("result"))

To let looot pick among every provider of this job instead, send job:company.search as endpointId; see the job page.
