Multi Field Request

With Resolve API, the ability to match on one or many input fields is available. Map, store and resolve to individuals by sending any identifiers you may already have, such as an email address(es), Twitter handle, Linkedin URL, phone number(s), name and location(address), name and Placekey identifier, social URLs, IDs and/or usernames (except Facebook and Instagram), Mobile Advertising IDs (MAIDs) and your internal customer record IDs, person IDs and a LiveIntent nonID using Resolve API. The Customer Record ID will then be used to locate and maintain an internal mapping which can be used as an input for future requests into FullContact APIs.

The more contact data inputs you can provide either via API or Batch, the better. By providing more contact inputs, the more accurate and precise we can get with our identity resolution capabilities. If your multi-field request contains incomplete identifier combinations alongside valid inputs, the valid inputs only will be used to identify and resolve an individual. For example, if a name/address combination does not adhere to what is acceptable alongside a valid email, only the valid email will be used to lookup an individual.

When providing inputs, there’s a few helpful tips to keep in mind:

  • To use MD5 emails, be sure to first lowercase and ensure any extraneous characters (e.g. extra spaces or surrounding quotation marks) are stripped off.
  • To use postal address, a name is required alongside the input and vise versa.
  • To use Placekey, a name is required alongside the input and vise versa.
  • Only one name/address (clear text postal or Placekey) combination can be included in the API request
  • To use an international phone number, a country code is required.
  • There is a maximum of 25 identifiers by type that you may use in your multi field request. A 400 Response will be returned if there are more than 25 identifiers for any given identifier type.
