# Individual Lookup

Look up one person's personal, non-work email address from their LinkedIn profile URL. Synchronous, returns the email directly.

<mark style="color:green;">`POST`</mark> `/personal_email`

{% hint style="info" %}
Costs **2 credits per row**, charged only when an address is found. Returns the email directly in the response, no list and no polling.
{% endhint %}

Pass a LinkedIn profile URL. The response contains the personal email in `data.personal_email`, with a verification status in `data.personal_email_status`.

**Headers**

| Name         | Value              |
| ------------ | ------------------ |
| Content-Type | `application/json` |

**Body**

| Name                  | Type   | Description                                    |
| --------------------- | ------ | ---------------------------------------------- |
| `api_key`             | string | Your API Key.                                  |
| `person_linkedin_url` | string | LinkedIn profile URL of the person to look up. |

**Response**

The record is under `data`. See [Response Format](/getting-started/response-format.md) for the fields every endpoint returns.

| Field                   | Description                                        |
| ----------------------- | -------------------------------------------------- |
| `person_linkedin_url`   | The profile that was looked up.                    |
| `personal_email`        | The personal address found.                        |
| `personal_email_status` | Verification status of that address, e.g. `valid`. |

When no address is found, `status` is `not_found` and both email fields are `null`.
