# Contact Signals

`POST /v3/contacts/signals`

Retrieve signal events for a list of contacts — job changes and promotions.

Pass up to 100 contact `ids`. Use `signalTypes` to specify which events to return (`promotion`, `companyChange`, or `allSignals`). Optionally set a `startDate` to limit results to recent activity.

> **Billing:** Charged per matched signal per result via the `showSignalsContact` action.

> **Persisting to a table:** Pass `tableId` to also add these contacts to an existing table and populate the Signals column. See [Contacts Tables](#tag/Contacts-Tables).
