Preview returns real matching records with the identity masked. It is how an agent proves a segment is the right one without spending a credit.
curl -G -H "Authorization: Bearer ag_live_..." \
--data-urlencode "title=CFO" \
--data-urlencode "country=Germany" \
--data-urlencode "limit=10" \

Every filter from the count endpoint applies, plus limit for how many rows to return.
What a row contains
- A masked identity string rather than the full name.
- Job title, company and country, so you can judge fit.
- No email address, phone number or LinkedIn URL. Those appear only after a reveal or in an export.
The response also carries the total population behind the preview, so one call gives you both the size and a sample of the shape.

The CLI equivalent prints the same data in a readable form:
npx argorant search "CFO" --country Germany -n 10Masked previews do not deduct contact credits and remain subject to quotas and rate limits. Inspect a small sample before approving paid output so you can correct the target roles or market first.
