Skip Tracing: Extract Phones & Emails from TruePeopleSearch via Zyte API

This n8n workflow enriches lead lists by scraping TruePeopleSearch profiles using Zyte's extraction API to bypass bot protection. It pulls first/last names and search URLs from Google Sheets, retrieves search results HTML, identifies the best matching profile link (prioritizing full name matches), and extracts key data: full name, age/DOB, primary/other phones, emails, and current address. If no phones are found on the primary profile, it intelligently detects and scrapes a relative's profile for fallback contact info, maximizing success rates.

Ideal for skip tracers, data brokers, real estate pros, and marketing teams needing verified contacts from minimal inputs like names. It handles empty profiles gracefully, writing all data (or blanks) back to the original Sheet row using row_number for precision. This saves hours of manual research, ensures compliance via Zyte's proxy rotation, and delivers clean, actionable data for campaigns or outreach.

Setup requires n8n, Zyte API key (HTTP Basic Auth), and a Google Sheet with headers like row_number, first_name, last_name, search_url. Run manually or schedule for batch processing—perfect for scaling lead gen without bans or CAPTCHAs.
