# Get Desk Contact Call Target

`POST /desk/contacts/{contact_id}/call-target`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://be.graph8.com/api/v1`
- URL: `https://be.graph8.com/api/v1/desk/contacts/{contact_id}/call-target`
- Auth: HTTP bearer

Resolve the dialable number for one contact, after the opt-out check.

ALWAYS 200. "No number on file" and "this person opted out" are ordinary
answers carried in the payload as `is_dialable: false` with a reason, not
errors - a caller that treats a non-200 as the only failure mode will dial
people who asked not to be called.

POST rather than GET is the app's choice: it consults the suppression
ledger, and pressing Call is an intent to contact someone, which should not
be firable by a prefetch. It resolves and writes nothing, which is why it
is tiered a READ.

## Path parameters

- `contact_id` integer, required: Contact id.

## Headers

- `Authorization` string, nullable
- `X-Target-Org-Id` string, nullable

## Response `200`

Successful Response

- ApiResponseDeskPayload
  - `data` DeskPayload, required: An open envelope for one desk object. Open on purpose - see the module docstring. A rebuilder gets every field the desk returns, including ones added after this contract version.
  - `pagination` PaginationMeta
    - `page` integer, required: Current page number (1-indexed)
    - `limit` integer, required: Items per page
    - `total` integer, required: Total number of items
    - `has_next` boolean, required: Whether there are more pages
    - `next_cursor` string, nullable: Opaque cursor for the next page; null when there are no more items. Pass it back as the `cursor` query param to fetch the following page without computing page numbers.
    - `total_available` integer, nullable: Search endpoints only: how many records really match, when known. Can be larger than `total`, which is capped at the 10,000 results that can be paged. For company search this is a distinct-company estimate. Null when unknown; absent outside search.
    - `total_is_lower_bound` boolean, nullable: Search endpoints only: true when more records match than `total` shows (the result set is larger than the 10,000 results that can be paged). Absent outside search.
    - `notes` string[], nullable: Search endpoints only: plain-language notes about the result, e.g. that more records match than can be paged, or that a reversed `between` range was put in order.
