extra.email_sources, each typed social_profile, link_in_bio, linked_profile or website_page. Reads the creator's bio and links, the link-in-bio pages they link (Linktree, Komi, Pillar, Lnk.Bio, Linkme and other link hubs), the profiles they link, and up to three websites they declare (homepage and contact pages, robots.txt honoured). Addresses are never guessed or checked by sending mail; kind is business, management or personal when the address itself says so. extra.partial is true when a page failed or was skipped, so an empty result is then not proof that no address exists. Pass a platform and handle, or a profile url.
You send one of url or handle.

Questions
Which errors can it return?
invalid_params (do not retry), unsupported_url (do not retry), not_found (do not retry). Account and platform errors from the errors list can also happen. A failure always costs 0 credits.
Is there an SDK call for it?
The preview Python client has client.creators.emails(...) and the TypeScript client client.creators.emails(). Both return the same envelope as the HTTP API. The packages are not published yet; plain HTTP works today in any language.
Can an AI agent call it?
Yes. The MCP server reaches every built endpoint, with the same prices.
