# Find Bulk Phones

> Find multiple phone numbers in a single batch (up to 3,000 searches) from LinkedIn URLs or name and company, with webhook notifications

<Badge color="green">POST</Badge>

```
https://api.enrow.io/phone/bulk
```

Run multiple phone searches in a single request. Up to 3,000 searches per batch. Authenticate every request with your [API key](/authentication) in the `x-api-key` header. To find a single phone number, use the [Find Single Phone](/api-reference/phone/find-single) endpoint.

Each search needs to contain either:

* The URL of a person's **LinkedIn profile** (e.g., `https://www.linkedin.com/in/michael-scott/`)
* The combination of individual information: `firstname` + `lastname` + (`company_name` or `company_domain`)

The **LinkedIn URL will always prevail** on the individual information if both are present.
