# Read a contact profile and only the conversations visible to this member

`GET /workspaces/{workspaceId}/contacts/{contactId}`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://app.communicate.so/api/v1`

- Auth: one of:
  - HTTP bearer
  - API key in cookie `__Secure-better-auth.session_token`
  - API key in cookie `better-auth.session_token`

Use an explicitly scoped user-bound account bearer credential or an application session. Scope grants are intersected with live membership, role, tenant isolation, agent access and plan limits; a credential does not grant an owner role. Invitation acceptance requires the verified recipient email.
