# Get a subscriber by email

`GET /v1/subscriber-lists/{id}/{email}`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.bluefox.email`
- URL: `https://api.bluefox.email/v1/subscriber-lists/{id}/{email}`
- Auth: HTTP bearer

Legacy flat URL shape. Accepts an API key or a whitelisted Origin header.
Unlike GET /v1/projectId/{projectId}/contacts/{email} (where custom field values are flat top-level keys), here they 
are returned nested under a "customFields" object, e.g. `{ "email": "x@y.com", "customFields": { "plan": "pro" } }`.

## Path parameters

- `id` string, required
- `email` string, required

## Response `200`

OK

- object
  - `status` integer
  - `result` object
    - `email` string
    - `status` 'unverified' | 'active' | 'unsubscribed' | 'paused'
    - `customFields` object: Custom contact field values, keyed by field name.

## Other responses

- `403`: Missing or invalid API key
- `404`: Subscriber not found
