This notebook is your guide to using the Sixtyfour API find-email. The find-email endpoint finds an email address for a lead based on the information you provide. It searches relevant sources and can validate deliverability. You can optionally restrict results to company domains and control whether to use bruteforce heuristics. Tip: You can change the lead in the parameters at the top. For best results, include the name and company (and optionally a strong identifier such as LinkedIn).

​

# --- Parameters (you can change these) ---
LEAD_NAME = "Saarth Shah"
LEAD_COMPANY = "Sixtyfour AI"

# LEAD_TITLE = "CEO"
# LEAD_LINKEDIN = "https://www.linkedin.com/in/sarah-chen-photography"

BRUTEFORCE = False              # If True, tries common patterns + validation
ONLY_COMPANY_EMAILS = True      # If True, filters out personal emails (gmail, yahoo, etc.)

import os, json, requests

API_KEY = os.getenv("SIXTYFOUR_API_KEY", "")
try:
    from google.colab import userdata
    secret_val = userdata.get("SIXTYFOUR_API_KEY")
    if secret_val:
        os.environ["SIXTYFOUR_API_KEY"] = secret_val
        API_KEY = secret_val
except Exception:
    pass

BASE_URL = "https://api.sixtyfour.ai"
ENDPOINT = f"{BASE_URL}/find-email"
TIMEOUT_S = 180

print("✅ Setup complete (key detected, endpoint ready).")
Output:
✅ Setup complete (key detected, endpoint ready).

Find_Email Request

For most use cases, find-email is the perfect tool. You send a request and get an email back with a single call. The request body requires:
  • lead: Lead information (name/company recommended; LinkedIn/domain/email if available).
Optional fields:
  • bruteforce (bool): Whether to try common patterns and validate.
  • only_company_emails (bool): If true, only company-domain emails are returned.
Responses may take a moment depending on validation steps. 

lead = {
    "name": LEAD_NAME,
    "company": LEAD_COMPANY,
    # "title": LEAD_TITLE,
    # "linkedin": LEAD_LINKEDIN,
}

payload = {
    "lead": lead,
    "bruteforce": BRUTEFORCE,
    "only_company_emails": ONLY_COMPANY_EMAILS,
}

resp = requests.post(
    ENDPOINT,
    headers={"x-api-key": API_KEY, "Content-Type": "application/json"},
    json=payload,
    timeout=TIMEOUT_S,
)

if resp.ok:
    data = resp.json()
    print("✅ Success! Keys:", list(data.keys()))
    print("\nResponse:")
    print(json.dumps(data, indent=2))
    # Email field is a list of tuples: [ [email, status, type], ... ]
    emails = data.get("email", [])
    print("\nParsed emails:")
    for item in emails:
        try:
            addr, status, kind = item
            print(f" - {addr} | status={status} | type={kind}")
        except Exception:
            print(" -", item)
else:
    print("❌ Request failed:", resp.status_code, resp.text[:800])
