Set People Lists
/v2/people/lists/setSets the lists of a selection of saved people to exactly list_ids (1-100 people lists): each selected record ends up in those lists and in no other. Select by ids (up to 25,000), or by filters (everything POST /v2/people/search matches, with the optional sort_by, sort_direction, limit, exclude_ids and extra_ids): exactly one of the two. Answers a job: 200 with the done job when the work ran inline, else 202 with the running job and Location: /v2/jobs/{id} (poll it after Retry-After). One bulk action runs per workspace at a time; an Idempotency-Key makes a retry answer the same job. Uses 1 unit of the jobs rate limit. Free: costs no credits.

Max 100 ids.excludestring[] Reject these people (same idvalues). Max 100 ids.nameobjectoptionalFilter on the person's name for People Search: include or exclude names, each term matching when all its words appear in the name.
Field Type Description includestring[] Names to match. Every word of a term must appear somewhere in the name, in any order, so "Dmytro Shulha" matches "Dmytro Shulha, PhD" and "Helena Calero" matches "Helena Montoya-Calero". Case-insensitive; diacritics are significant ("Jose" does not match "José"). Any single term qualifies. Max 500 items. excludestring[] Names to reject, matched the same way. Max 500 items. linkedin_urlobjectoptionalLookup of specific people for People Search by LinkedIn profile URL (1-50); the other filters narrow the result.

Cannot be combined withperson.idorperson.name. Results keep the order of the URLs (sort_bydoes not apply) and each carries thematched_urlit was found by. 1-50 urls.Example:
["https://linkedin.com/in/emily-carter-sample"]
Example
{ "filters": { "person": { "name": { "include": [ "Dmytro Shulha" ] } } } }person_locationobjectoptionalInclude/exclude filter on unified location strings (country, state, city or region), used by People Search
person_location.Field Type Description includestring[] Match these locations (any of). Unified strings like "United States", "Texas, United States", "San Francisco, California, United States" - or a region like "EMEA", "APAC", "Europe", "Latin America", which expands to its member countries (full list with member countries: GET /v2/enums/regions). Max 100 items, each 2-200 chars. If none of the values resolve to a known location, the request fails with 400. excludestring[] Reject these locations (same unified-string format). Max 100 items, each 2-200 chars. Values that do not resolve are skipped. Example
{ "filters": { "person_location": { "include": [ "California, United States", "Austin, Texas, United States" ], "exclude": [ "San Francisco, California, United States" ] } } }company_keywordsobjectoptionalPhrase filter on company keyword fields (Keyword sources), shared by
company_keywordsin People Search and Company Search.Field Type Description includestring[]required Phrases to search for. 1-20 items, 3-100 chars each. Matched as phrases: a multi-word entry like "email finder" requires those words adjacent and in order within one of the selected source fields, not merely present somewhere in it. excludestring[] Phrases that disqualify a company. 0-20 items. Matched as phrases, same as include.include_allboolean When true, every phrase in includemust match; otherwise any single match qualifies. default: false.sourcesenum[] Restrict matching to these source fields (see Keyword sources). Omit to use the default source set - see this company_keywordsfilter's own description above for what that is.Example

match_mode, or oneboolean_searchexpression instead.Field Type Description includestring[] Job titles to match. Max 100 items, each 2-100 chars. Combined per match_mode. Known abbreviations also match their canonical spelling and vice versa (e.g. "CEO" matches "Chief Executive Officer"), however you spell them - "VP of Marketing", "VP, Marketing" and "Marketing VP" all match what "VP Marketing" matches. Under CONTAINS, terms match any of the roles a position carries - including the secondary roles of combined titles like "Founder & CEO" and the original title text. excludestring[] Job titles to reject. Max 100 items, each 2-100 chars. match_modeenum CONTAINS = the title contains every word of the term, in any order; connector words (of, and, the, ...) are ignored, so "Director of Sales Enablement" also matches "Director, Sales Enablement". EXACT = the person's LinkedIn title is exactly the term, so "founder" does not match "Founder & CEO", "Founder of Acme LLC" or "Fondateur" - use CONTAINS for those. Applies to include/exclude; ignored when boolean_search is set. Allowed values:
CONTAINSEXACTboolean_searchstring Boolean / Cartesian title query, e.g. "(CEO OR CTO) AND !Intern". Syntax: bareword=contains; 'single quotes'=contains too, and the way to write a title with a space in it - 'vp marketing' matches exactly what include: ["vp marketing"] matches; "double quotes"=exact; backticks=words in order with connectors bridged, sovp marketingfinds "VP of Marketing" but not "VP Sales and Marketing" or "Marketing VP"; !=exclude, AND/OR, ()=grouping. Max 500 terms, depth 5, each term 2-100 chars. AND and OR cannot be mixed at the same nesting level - use parentheses to group. Mutually exclusive with include/exclude. max length: 20000.Example

PRIMARY = only the one main company page of the domain, leaving out the organization's other pages. LINKEDIN_WEBSITE = only the organization's pages whose own LinkedIn website is on the domain, so the domain is never inferred: "stripe.com", "stripe.com/jobs" and "jobs.stripe.com" all match "stripe.com"; a page that lists another site, or no website, does not.excludeis not affected: it always rejects every company on the domain.Allowed values:

A person is counted against the company of the position that matched your company filters, or their current/primary position when no company filter is set. Of the colleagues competing for a company slot, one we hold a valid email for is kept, and your sort decides between them (and picks the representative outright when none of them has one). Results stay in your sort order either way. For result sets above 25000 matches the representative is simply whoever leads your sort, and total_count is a rounded PRE-cap estimate (pagination.total_is_estimate=true) - an upper bound, so an export of that selection returns fewer people. At or below it both are exact.
