Delivers companies that made their first hire outside their home country. With `start: false` (the default) a DRAFT is saved — status `initializing`, nothing billed: read it back with GET /business/agents/{agentId}, adjust it with PATCH /business/agents/{agentId}, then start it with POST /business/agents/{agentId}/activate. With `start: true` the agent is created AND started in one call: its dedicated results list is created, credits are checked and spent, and the provider subscriptions are set up. Either way the answer is 201 `{ agent: { id, type, name, status, started } }` — the same shape for every agent kind, draft or started. Poll GET /business/agents for `status` and `contactsFound`, and read the delivered rows with the Lists endpoints via the agent's `listId`. Free-plan accounts hold at most 10 agents, drafts included (403 AGENT_LIMIT_REACHED). Every field below is validated by the agents service: a rejected field answers 422 VALIDATION_FAILED, naming it in `param` and describing every failure in `message`. `listName` must not collide with an existing list or agent name (409 LIST_NAME_TAKEN), and starting without enough credits answers 402 INSUFFICIENT_CREDITS without creating anything. Errors: - `422` `VALIDATION_FAILED` — The request was rejected by validation. Either this endpoint's own request validation (a malformed body), or the agent config itself: a field missing, out of range or not one of the accepted values, or a business rule broken (an `expirationDate` that is not in the future, more industries than the kind accepts, a notification count out of range). `param` names the first offending field and `message` lists every failure. - `409` `LIST_NAME_TAKEN` — `listName` is already used by one of your lists or agents. Pick another name. - `402` `INSUFFICIENT_CREDITS` — The workspace does not have enough credits to start this agent. Nothing was created or spent. - `403` `AGENT_LIMIT_REACHED` — Free-plan accounts may hold at most 10 agents, drafts included. Delete an agent or upgrade the plan. - `400` `INVALID_REQUEST` — The agents service rejected the request for a reason this API does not model specifically. The request is not retryable unchanged. - `429` `RATE_LIMITED` — The agents bucket is exhausted: 30 requests per minute or 2,000 per day per token owner, shared by every /business/agents operation (a 429 raised by the agents service is relayed with this code too). Retry after the `Retry-After` header. - `500` `UNEXPECTED_ERROR` — The agents service failed (5xx, refused service credential, or a timeout after 60s) or the rate limiter was unavailable. Retry later; quote `request_id` to support. Requires one of the following token scopes: agents. ## OpenAPI ````yaml /openapi.json post /business/agents/first-person-hired-internationally openapi: 3.1.0 info: title: Fuse Business API version: 1.0.0 description: >- External API for lists, campaigns, prospect search and contacts.

Requires one of the following token scopes: agents. operationId: createFirstPersonHiredInternationallyAgent requestBody: required: true content: application/json: schema: type: object properties: start: type: boolean default: false description: >- true creates AND activates the agent (spends credits); false (default) saves a draft to activate later. listName: type: string description: >- Name for BOTH the agent and the results list it creates. Must be unique across your agents: a name already in use is rejected with 409 LIST_NAME_TAKEN. industries: type: array items: type: string minItems: 1 maxItems: 1 description: >- Industry of the company. Use exact values from GET /business/agents/autocomplete?field=industry (for example "Software Development", "Financial Services"). Any other wording is first resolved to the closest supported LinkedIn industry ("tech" becomes "Technology, Information and Internet"), and a value with no match is dropped rather than rejected, so the filter silently widens instead of failing. Exactly one value is allowed here (min 1, max 1); to cover several, run one agent per value. regions: type: array items: type: string minItems: 1 maxItems: 1 description: >- Headquarters location of the company, as a LinkedIn geography: either a country ("United States") or a sub-national area ("California, United States"). Use exact values from GET /business/agents/autocomplete?field=region. The upstream stores the string as sent and never checks it against a list, so any other value is accepted, the create still answers 201, and the agent then silently matches nothing. Exactly one value is allowed here (min 1, max 1); to cover several, run one agent per value. companyHeadcount: type: array items: type: string minItems: 1 maxItems: 1 description: >- Size of the company, as a headcount bucket. Use one of exactly: 1-10, 11-50, 51-200, 201-500, 501-1,000, 1,001-5,000, 5,001-10,000, 10,001+ (the commas and the exact spacing are part of the value: "500-1000" is not a bucket). The upstream stores the string as sent and never checks it against a list, so any other value is accepted, the create still answers 201, and the agent then silently matches nothing. Exactly one value is allowed here (min 1, max 1); to cover several, run one agent per value. companyHeadcountGrowth: type: object properties: min: type: number description: >- Minimum year-over-year headcount growth, as a percentage (10 means 10%). max: type: number description: >- Maximum year-over-year headcount growth, as a percentage (40 means 40%). required: - min - max description: >- Deprecated: accepted for backward compatibility and never forwarded to the provider, so arbitrary min and max values are allowed here and change nothing about what the agent matches. This monitor has no headcount-growth filter; constrain company size with `companyHeadcount` instead. annualRevenue: type: object properties: min: type: number description: >- Minimum annual revenue, in MILLIONS of the `subFilter` currency (1000 means $1B). max: type: number description: >- Maximum annual revenue, in MILLIONS of the `subFilter` currency (10000 means $10B). subFilter: type: string enum: - USD description: >- Currency the revenue bounds are expressed in. Only USD is supported. required: - min - max description: >- Annual-revenue band of the company, in MILLIONS of USD: {"min": 1000, "max": 10000} means $1B to $10B. Both bounds are required whenever the object is sent, and `subFilter` must be one of exactly: USD, the default and the only currency the provider supports. Omit the whole object for no revenue filter. expirationDate: type: - string - 'null' description: >- Date the agent stops running, as YYYY-MM-DD (for example "2026-12-31"), and in the future. Pass null to run until you pause or delete it; omit it for the default of one month from creation. maxContacts: type: integer description: >- Cap on the total number of results this agent delivers into its list. Omit for no cap. maxCreditSpend: type: integer minimum: 1000 maximum: 200000 description: >- Maximum credits this agent may spend in a single run or refresh (1000 to 200000); delivery-driven monitors stop once their total delivered results reach it. Omit for no limit. notificationCount: type: integer description: >- Maximum results the agent may deliver in a single run.
