已知陷阱

• Organization domains can be empty: Some organizations from

  APOLLO_ORGANIZATION_SEARCH

  return missing or empty domain fields. Use

  APOLLO_ORGANIZATION_ENRICHMENT

  to validate domains before relying on them.
• HTTP 403 means config issues: A 403 response indicates API key or plan access problems -- do not retry. Fix your credentials or plan first.
• People search returns obfuscated data:

  APOLLO_PEOPLE_SEARCH

  may show

  has_email

  /

  has_direct_phone

  flags or obfuscated fields instead of full contact details. Use

  APOLLO_PEOPLE_ENRICHMENT

  to get complete information.
• Pagination limits are strict: People search supports

  per_page

  up to 100 and max 500 pages. Stopping early can miss large portions of the result set.
• Bulk enrichment has small batch limits:

  APOLLO_BULK_PEOPLE_ENRICHMENT

  accepts only 10 items per call. It can return

  status='success'

  with

  missing_records > 0

  when identifiers are insufficient -- retry individual records with

  APOLLO_PEOPLE_ENRICHMENT

  .
• No automatic deduplication:

  APOLLO_CREATE_CONTACT

  does not deduplicate. Check for existing contacts first with

  APOLLO_SEARCH_CONTACTS

  .
• Domain format matters: Always use bare hostnames (e.g., "apollo.io") without protocol prefixes ("https://") or "www." prefix.
