V2 of Export Single Person with Email — Clay-compatible. Behaves exactly like /v1/people/export/single, except that when the person is not found or has no email it returns HTTP 200 with an envelope { status, error, data } and data: null (instead of the v1 404).
Lookup uses id first, then url. You must provide either id or url; if both are empty the API returns 400 Bad Request.
✨ Recommended for Clay: this V2 endpoint gracefully returns HTTP 200 for both the found and not-found cases, which is what Clay expects when enriching leads.
💳 Credit Usage: 1 credit per successful call (0.5 Full Profile Enrichment + 0.5 real-time BounceBan-validated email), and 0 credits if we do not find a valid email. The charged amount is also returned in the X-Credit response header (e.g. -1.0), present only on the charged (email found) response.
✅ Email Verification: All emails (SMTP & CATCH_ALL) returned by the API are verified in real time by BounceBan — safe to send, no re-verification needed.
Real errors (400 / 402 / 500) and gateway errors (401 / 429) are returned as-is with their real HTTP status — they are not wrapped.
