# Overview

> B2B person and company data - enrichment, dataset search, identity resolution, IP lookups and cleaners from People Data Labs.

Use **People Data Labs** through Corsair: one client, typed API calls, local DB sync.

**What you get:**

* 12 typed API operations
* 2 synced entities (`companies`, `people`) for fast `.search()` / `.list()`

## Setup

**1. Install**

```bash npm theme={null}
npm install corsair @corsair-dev/pdl
```

```bash yarn theme={null}
yarn add corsair @corsair-dev/pdl
```

```bash pnpm theme={null}
pnpm install corsair @corsair-dev/pdl
```

```bash bun theme={null}
bun add corsair @corsair-dev/pdl
```

**2. Add the plugin**

```ts corsair.ts theme={null}
import Database from 'better-sqlite3';
import { createCorsair } from 'corsair';
import { pdl } from '@corsair-dev/pdl';

export const corsair = createCorsair({
	plugins: [
		pdl(),
	],
	database: new Database('corsair.db'),
	kek: process.env.CORSAIR_KEK!,
	hub: {
		projectApiKey: process.env.CORSAIR_API_KEY!,
		signingSecret: process.env.CORSAIR_SIGNING_SECRET!,
	},
});
```

Multi-tenancy is the default — scope calls with `corsair.withTenant(id)`. See [Quick start](/quick-start) for KEK + Hub keys, and [Multi-tenancy](/concepts/multi-tenancy) for account isolation.

**3. Choose authentication**

**API Key (Recommended)**

No setup required yet. When you make your first request as a tenant, Corsair prompts for the API key.

```ts theme={null}
pdl()
```

More: [API Key](/concepts/api-key)

**4. Connect a tenant**

Mint a connect link and send the tenant to it. Hub hosts the page and delivers the result to your app — see [Connect / OAuth](/management/connect).

```ts theme={null}
const { connectUrl } = await corsair.manage.connect.createLink({
	plugin: 'pdl',
	tenantId: 'acme',
});
// redirect the user's browser to connectUrl
```

## Example API calls

**Enrich a person profile**

```ts theme={null}
const tenant = corsair.withTenant('acme');
await tenant.pdl.api.person.enrich({ profile: 'linkedin.com/in/gracehopper', min_likelihood: 8 });
```

**Search the person dataset**

```ts theme={null}
const tenant = corsair.withTenant('acme');
await tenant.pdl.api.person.search({
	query: {
		term: { job_company_name: 'people data labs' },
	},
	size: 10,
});
```

See the full list on the [API](/plugins/pdl/api) page.

## Query synced data

Matched people are stored by their PDL person id when a database is configured, so re-enriching the same profile refreshes the row instead of duplicating it.

```ts theme={null}
const tenant = corsair.withTenant('acme');
const rows = await tenant.pdl.db.people.search({
	data: { pdlId: 'person_abc', name: 'grace hopper' },
	limit: 50,
});
```

Synced entities: `companies`, `people`. See [Database](/plugins/pdl/database) for filters and operators.
