Use cases

  • Display a contact detail page in your application
  • Fetch the latest data for a specific contact before updating it
  • Verify a contact exists before performing operations on it
The contact must belong to the authenticated user. Requesting a contact that does not exist or belongs to another user returns a 404 error.
