Description
Summary We're looking for a developer to build a social media API integration and contact enrichment data pipeline. All 3 components are bundled into a single fixed-price contract of $150 USD, paid as one milestone upon completion of all of them. What needs to be done: 1) API Research and Testing: Research, evaluate, and test available APIs for social media platforms to identify the most reliable endpoints for retrieving public profile and follower data. Document rate limits, authentication requirements, and data availability for each option tested. 2) Automated Data Collection Flow: Build an automated pipeline that connects to the chosen API(s), collects structured contact and profile data, and stores it in a standardized format. The flow should handle pagination, errors, and retries gracefully. 3) JSON Export and Formatting: Implement a JSON export layer that formats the collected data into a clean, structured output file. Fields should include relevant contact attributes such as username, follower count, bio, and contact links where available. Deliverables: - Working API integration with documented setup steps. - Automated data collection flow that can be triggered on demand. - Clean JSON export with structured contact fields. - Brief notes explaining each component and how to run it. Timeline: roughly 3 to 5 business days total. Revisions: up to 2 rounds of revisions per task within original scope, included. IP and Confidentiality: All code becomes our property upon final payment. Contractor agrees not to share or reuse the codebase or business logic. Ideal candidate: Intermediate developer with experience in API integrations, data pipelines, and Python-based automation. When applying, please briefly mention similar API integration or data collection work you've done.
