Send one curl request and see an Operata contact in the v1 format. For the v2 data model, use the Quickstart. You need a Group ID, an API token, and curl.

Before you start

  • An Operata account. Your Operata Group ID is the UUID in the console URL.
  • An API token generated under Settings → Config → API.

Make the request

What you should see

A JSON array with one contact. This example is shortened:

What the response means

  • You authenticated with HTTP Basic — Group ID as username, token as password. See Authentication.
  • You requested one contact from a 24-hour window using the contact summary endpoint. See List contact summaries.
  • The response is a plain JSON array. The RecordCount response header holds how many contacts match in total, and you page with from and size. See Pagination.
  • A 429 response means you hit the per-token budget — back off using Retry-After. See Rate limits.
  • Errors come back as an HTTP status code with a short plain-text body. See Errors.
