CrustData V3 guidance

Use autocomplete before search when filter values are uncertain. Autocomplete is free and reduces expensive zero-result searches. Use indexed search for discovery:
  • crustdata_v3_person_search
  • crustdata_v3_company_search
  • crustdata_v3_job_search
Keep limit strict. Search is billed per returned result, not by matched total_count. Use enrich after narrowing candidates:
  • crustdata_v3_person_enrich for full cached person profiles.
  • crustdata_v3_person_contact_enrich for contact-only lookups.
  • crustdata_v3_company_enrich for full company records.
Use crustdata_v3_company_identify before company enrich when the inbound identifier is fuzzy. It is free. Do not use old PersonDB field paths with V3 unless a reviewed compatibility mapper converts them to the documented 2025-11-01 field vocabulary.
