# Call contact.get

> Say what we know about one customer — 'who is this lead?', 'what's the story with that contact?', 'have we talked to them before?'.  Read one customer's record — who they are, which ways exist to reach them, their tags, whether we may message them, and their recent history. Address them by their id, or by ONE key you already hold from the conversation (an email, a phone number, a Messenger id). It deliberately returns no addresses or phone numbers, and there is no way to list customers with it. The summary is small on purpose; ask for section timeline or notes when it says more exists. Not for writing on their record — that is `contact.note`.

Every result names the workspace it ran in. Say which workspace the answer is about. When the account has more than one workspace and none is selected, this tool refuses with `workspace_ambiguous` and lists the choices — offer them, never pick one.



## OpenAPI

````yaml /openapi.json post /api/v1/tools/contact.get

  summary: Manage workspace content, projects, Data tables, Pages, library and credits.
  description: >-
    BETA. This API is in beta: paths, request shapes and response envelopes may
    change, and every response carries an `x-goosy-api: beta` header for as long
    as that is true. A change is additive, or it is deprecated first: a response
    to a call that uses a deprecated feature carries `Deprecation` and `Sunset`
    headers, and nothing is removed until at least 90 days after its
    deprecation. Pin the OpenAPI document you generated against and re-generate
    when it changes.

        A request the boundary refused before dispatching anything. The same
        shape the MCP endpoint answers its own refusals with, and the same
        top-level fields a dispatched call's refusal carries, so one client
        branch covers both.

        An API key minted at Settings › API & MCP. Send it as `Authorization:
        Bearer <key>`. A key carries its holder's own permissions, resolved on
        every call — revoking a membership closes the key's reach immediately.
        Keep it in an environment variable (`GOOSY_API_KEY`), never in a
        committed file.
