Pipl Search API Endpoint
There is a single endpoint for all Search API requests: https://api.pipl.com/search/
Note
We require SSL, so change any URL prefix to HTTPS instead of HTTP.
HTTPS API Endpoint: https://api.pipl.com/search/
The API Endpoint accepts either one of:
- GET request
- POST request with Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
Types of Searches
There are 3 different ways to make a search:
- A list of Search parameters
- A Person object
- A Search pointer
All parameters should be UTF-8 and URL Encoded.
Output is always in JSON format. See Response.
Minimum Requirements
Note
The minimal requirement to run a search is to have at least one:
- full name
- phone
- username
- user_id
- URL
- a single valid US address (down to a house number)
- vin
Pipl cannot search for a job title or location alone. We’re not a directory and cannot provide bulk lists of people. We specialize in identity resolution of single individuals.
