Looking up an existing contact by name or email

Can I use the v1 interface “contact_list” to look up an existing contact by something other than their ID. For instance their name or email?

Or is there another function that’s intended to do this?

I’m not trying to update the contact, just retrieve their information.

Hi there, Amy from ActiveCampaign’s Customer Experience Team. We’re just refreshing our forum page and I wanted to add some help here for anyone who comes across this page/question/post.

You sure can use V1’s API Call: API Examples Using contact_list or you can use V3’s API Call: Retrieve a contact.

Any questions or additional ideas, thread them below!
