Find companies that look like your target accounts. Send one or more LinkedIn company URLs; the API uses them (up to 3 for keyword generation) to build a lookalike search and delivers results to your webhook. The response includes an import id, total count, and a preview of the first 10 matching companies. You must provide either company_linkedin_url or company_linkedin_urls, plus webhook_url. Optionally filter by company_size, included_locations, and excluded_locations, and cap results with limit.

Location IDs Reference

Location IDs used in included_locations and excluded_locations can be retrieved using the Location IDs endpoint. Provide a location name (e.g. “San Francisco”) and the API returns matching locations with their IDs.
