Turns one contact-sourcing recommendation into a lemlist contact.

Add a Sourced Contact
Takes a Why
The People Database resolves a person’s company from their own profile. If the
person has changed jobs since the run, they belong to a different company than
the one you sourced — so lemlist checks, and answers
leadId from a run’s contacts array and creates the matching contact
in your workspace.
Filing and enriching
listIdfiles the new contact into a contact list. Without it the contact lands in All contacts.findEmail: truealso runs email enrichment on the new contact. It spends enrichment credits, so it is off by default.
Why companyId is required
The People Database resolves a person’s company from their own profile. If the
person has changed jobs since the run, they belong to a different company than
the one you sourced — so lemlist checks, and answers 409 rather than filing
them under the wrong account and reporting success.
