Hunter app

The Hunter app lets your workflows find and check work email addresses. Use it to fill in a missing email on a new person record, confirm an address before a sequence sends to it, or pull the contacts at a company you've just started tracking.

Connect Hunter to AttioCopy link

Hunter uses a single workspace connection. One admin connects an API key and the whole workspace shares it, so individual members don't connect their own accounts.

1. In Hunter, go to hunter.io/api-keys and create an API key.

2. In Attio, click your workspace name, select Workspace settings, then go to Apps in the sidebar.

3. Search for and open the Hunter app, then click Install.

4. Click Connect and paste in your Hunter API key.

Use Hunter steps in a workflowCopy link

Use these steps to find an address, check one you already have, or pull the addresses at a company. Each lookup uses credits from your Hunter plan, which are separate from the Attio credits a workflow run consumes.

Find emailCopy link

Finds the most likely work email from a company, a name, or a LinkedIn URL.

Inputs:

• LinkedIn URL: The person's LinkedIn profile.

• Person's name: Enter a full name, or a first and last name.

• Company domain: The company's domain.

• Company name: The company's name.

Set enough information for Hunter to identify the person. That means either a LinkedIn URL on its own, or a person's name together with a company domain or company name.

A few things affect which values get used:

• A LinkedIn URL is enough by itself, and anything else you set is still sent alongside it.

• If you set both a company domain and a company name, the domain is used and the name is ignored.

• A first and last name together take priority over a full name. A first name on its own doesn't count, so the step falls back to the full name.

Outcomes:

• Email found: Outputs the email address.

• Email not found: No outputs. Hunter had no address for this person. This isn't an error, and it doesn't cost a Hunter credit.

Verify emailCopy link

Checks an email address and returns its status, score, and a set of flags.

Inputs:

• Email address (required): The address to check.

Outcomes:

• Success: The check completed.

Outputs, all of which are always present:

• Email address: The address that was checked.

• Status: One of valid, invalid, accept_all, webmail, disposable, or unknown.

• Score: A number.

• Valid format, Gibberish, Disposable, Webmail, MX records, SMTP server, SMTP check, Accept all, and Blocked: Each is true or false.

Domain searchCopy link

Finds email addresses associated with a company domain or name.

Inputs:

• Company domain: The company's domain.

• Company name: The company's name. Used only when no domain is set.

• Email type: Select Personal or Generic. Leave empty to include both.

• Seniority: Click Add seniority to filter by Junior, Senior, or Executive. Add more than one row to include several. Leave empty to include all.

• Department: Click Add department to filter by department, such as Sales, Marketing, or Operations. Add more than one row to include several. Leave empty to include all.

• Limit: The maximum number of addresses to return, up to 100. Leave empty to use the default of 10.

You need to set a company domain or a company name. If you set both, the domain is used.

Outcomes:

• Emails found: Outputs Emails, a list. Each entry has an email address, and may also include first name, last name, position, type, confidence, seniority, and department.

• Emails not found: No outputs. Hunter found no addresses for this company. This isn't an error. If Hunter finds addresses but every one of them is opted out, the step also returns Emails not found the same as if nothing had matched.
