# Get contacts

> Read contacts you already hold, by id: name, current job title and employer, location, LinkedIn URL, and the contact's verified email and phone where Tamtam has them.

Repeat `contact_id` once per contact, up to 100 per call. Ids come from anywhere this API hands you a contact — a [contacts list](/api-reference/contacts-lists/list-contacts-list-contacts), a [contact search](/api-reference/contact-searches/get-contact-search), or a [people search](/api-reference/people-search/search-people).

An id naming no contact in your account is left out of the response rather than failing the call, so a batch never fails as a whole; match results back by `contact_id`. Free: this reads what you already own and enriches nothing.
