SettingTypeDescription
namestringDisplay name for your squid configuration
accountsarrayArray of linked Sales Navigator account hashes (required)
export_unique_resultsbooleanExport only unique results (deduplicated)
to_completebooleanRun until all tasks complete
no_line_breaksbooleanRemove line breaks from results
Enabling functions.email_enrichment incurs additional credit costs for email enrichment.
Use multiple Sales Navigator accounts in the accounts array to increase throughput and avoid rate limits.
Sales Navigator limits search results to 2,500 leads. Use more specific filters to access different lead segments.
Backward compatibility: The old function name email is still accepted but deprecated. Migrate to email_enrichment.
