## Usage

### Search profiles from text
Takes free-form text (e.g., 'Software engineers in US with 5+ years of experience') and returns a list of matching profiles.

Parameters:
- query* (string)
- pageSize (integer) - The number of profiles to return, if you need to get more results, you can paginate.
- getDetailedEducation (['boolean', 'null']) - Whether to include deep details about each educational item, like the school's LinkedIn URL, website, location, etc. That'll be put in the detailedEducation array. This slows down the API call, so only enable this if you need it.
- getDetailedWorkExperience (['boolean', 'null']) - Whether to include deep details about each work experience item, like the company's LinkedIn URL, website, location, etc. That'll be put in the detailedWorkExperience array. This slows down the API call, so only enable this if you need it.
- cursor (['string', 'null']) - A pagination cursor returned from a previous search response. Use this to fetch the next page of results.

```bash
curl -s -X POST $GOOSEWORKS_API_BASE/v1/proxy/orthogonal/run \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \

```

### Find person by email

Parameters:
- email* (string) - The person's email address for which you want to do a reverse lookup
