Migration Steps

Step 1: Get Tomba Credentials

1. Sign up at app.tomba.io
2. Get your API Key and Secret Key

Step 2: Update API Endpoints

Findymail:

Code
 
POST https://api.findymail.com/v1/search/name

Tomba:

Code
 
GET https://api.tomba.io/v1/email-finder

Step 3: Update Authentication

Findymail:

Code
 
{
  headers: {
    'Authorization': `Bearer ${FINDYMAIL_KEY}`
  }
}

Tomba:

Code
 
{
  headers: {
    'X-Tomba-Key': TOMBA_KEY,
    'X-Tomba-Secret': TOMBA_SECRET
  }
}

---

Code Examples

Node.js

Before (Findymail):

Code
 
const axios = require("axios");

async function findEmail(domain, firstName, lastName) {
    const response = await axios.post(
        "https://api.findymail.com/v1/search/name",
        {
            domain: domain,
            first_name: firstName,
            last_name: lastName,
        },
        {
            headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${process.env.FINDYMAIL_KEY}` },
        },
    );

    return response.data;
}

After (Tomba):

Code
 
const axios = require("axios");

async function findEmail(domain, firstName, lastName) {
    const response = await axios.get("https://api.tomba.io/v1/email-finder", {
        params: {
            domain: domain,
            first_name: firstName,
            last_name: lastName,
        },
        headers: {
            "X-Tomba-Key": process.env.TOMBA_KEY,
            "X-Tomba-Secret": process.env.TOMBA_SECRET,
        },
    });

    const data = response.data.data;
    console.log(`Email: ${data.email}`);
    console.log(`Verified: ${data.verification.status}`);
    console.log(`Score: ${data.score}`);
    console.log(`Phone: ${data.phone_number}`);
    console.log(`LinkedIn: ${data.linkedin}`);
    console.log(`Company Size: ${data.company.size}`);

    return data;
}

Using Tomba SDK:

Code
 
const Tomba = require("tomba");

const client = new Tomba.Client()
    .setKey(process.env.TOMBA_KEY)
    .setSecret(process.env.TOMBA_SECRET);

const finder = new Tomba.Finder(client);

async function findEmail(domain, firstName, lastName) {
    const result = await finder.emailFinder({
        domain: domain,
        first_name: firstName,
        last_name: lastName,
    });

    return result.data;
}

Python

Before (Findymail):

Code
 
import requests

def find_email(domain, first_name, last_name):
    response = requests.post(
        'https://api.findymail.com/v1/search/name',
        json={
            'domain': domain,
            'first_name': first_name,
            'last_name': last_name
        },
        headers={'Authorization': f'Bearer {os.environ["FINDYMAIL_KEY"]}'}
    )
    return response.json()

After (Tomba):

Code
 
import requests

def find_email(domain, first_name, last_name):
    response = requests.get(
        'https://api.tomba.io/v1/email-finder',
        params={
            'domain': domain,
            'first_name': first_name,
            'last_name': last_name
        },
        headers={
            'X-Tomba-Key': os.environ['TOMBA_KEY'],
            'X-Tomba-Secret': os.environ['TOMBA_SECRET']
        }
    )

    data = response.json()['data']
    print(f"Email: {data['email']}")
    print(f"Verified: {data['verification']['status']}")
    print(f"Phone: {data.get('phone_number', 'N/A')}")

    return data

Using Tomba SDK:

Code
 
from tomba import Client, Finder

client = Client()
client.set_key(os.environ['TOMBA_KEY'])
client.set_secret(os.environ['TOMBA_SECRET'])

finder = Finder(client)

def find_email(domain, first_name, last_name):
    result = finder.email_finder(
        domain=domain,
        first_name=first_name,
        last_name=last_name
    )
    return result['data']

Waterfall Enrichment Alternative

Findymail's waterfall enrichment can be replicated with Tomba's API:

Code
 
const axios = require("axios");

async function waterfallEnrichment(domain, firstName, lastName, linkedinUrl) {
    const headers = {
        "X-Tomba-Key": process.env.TOMBA_KEY,
        "X-Tomba-Secret": process.env.TOMBA_SECRET,
    };

    // Try 1: Email Finder
    try {
        const emailResult = await axios.get(
            "https://api.tomba.io/v1/email-finder",
            {
                params: { domain, first_name: firstName, last_name: lastName },
                headers,
            },
        );

        if (emailResult.data.data.email) {
            return enrichData(emailResult.data.data);
        }
    } catch (e) {}

    // Try 2: LinkedIn Finder
    if (linkedinUrl) {
        try {
            const linkedinResult = await axios.get(
                "https://api.tomba.io/v1/linkedin",
                {
                    params: { url: linkedinUrl },
                    headers,
                },
            );

            if (linkedinResult.data.data.email) {
                return enrichData(linkedinResult.data.data);
            }
        } catch (e) {}
    }

    // Try 3: Domain Search (find similar contacts)
    try {
        const domainResult = await axios.get(
            "https://api.tomba.io/v1/domain-search",
            {
                params: { domain },
                headers,
            },
        );

        // Find best match
        const match = findBestMatch(
            domainResult.data.data.emails,
            firstName,
            lastName,
        );
        if (match) {
            return enrichData(match);
        }
    } catch (e) {}

    return null;
}

function enrichData(data) {
    return {
        email: data.email,
        verified: data.verification?.status === "valid",
        phone: data.phone_number,
        linkedin: data.linkedin,
        position: data.position,
        company: data.company,
        score: data.score,
    };
}
