Use Cases

• •Extract leads from saved Apollo.io searches

• •Automate daily lead list generation from Apollo filters
• •Scale outreach by pulling 50,000+ leads at once
• •Bypass Apollo's manual export restrictions

Best Practices

• •Apollo scrapes CANNOT be cancelled - verify parameters before starting
• •Must use Filters 1.0 URLs - look for [] in parameters like personTitles[]
• •Filters 2.0 URLs without [] notation will be rejected
• •Remove uniqueUrlId parameter if present (automatically stripped)
• •Copy URL directly from Apollo.io after building your search
• •Maximum 50,000 leads per run (auto-splits larger requests)
• •Minimum 500 leads per scrape
• •Test with smaller counts (500-1000) before large scrapes
• •Download results within 48 hours before expiration
• •Wallet-based limits apply - scrapes auto-cap at wallet balance + $1
