Read one person's full detail by exact slug or URL

View as Markdown
Exact read: returns the full detail of the one person a slug, URL, or candidate signals prove, and 404 or 409 instead of guessing. To identify a person by name and clues, use the POST lookup on this path (CLI people lookup). Use the UUID item route for an id; any id query is rejected. Canonical redirects are preserved. A signed-in user's read charges one view per distinct returned record against the monthly entity or person view allowance; a repeat read of the same record in the month is free, and an exhausted cap answers 429 with Retry-After. Service-credential (client secret or admin API key) and anonymous reads are never charged.

Query parameters

slugstringOptional

Group A — exact person slug (URL-friendly identifier). Mutually exclusive with id, url, and every candidate signal in group C.

urlstringOptional

Group B — current person URL to resolve via strict host+path or domain-only match. Mutually exclusive with id and slug; may be combined with group-C candidate signals for URL-first fallback.

urlTypestringOptional

Optional URL type qualifier for URL lookup (e.g., ‘linkedin’, ‘twitter’). Narrows Group B (url) and Group C (urlDomain) matching. Not an identifier on its own.

urlMatchModestringOptional

URL match mode qualifier: ‘hostPath’ (strict host + path match, default) or ‘domain’ (host-only match). Not an identifier on its own.

nameFullstringOptional

Group C — candidate lookup signal: person full name. Combine with other group-C signals (nameAny, location, urlDomain) for bounded candidate search. Mutually exclusive with id and slug; may be combined with url for fallback.

nameAnystringOptional

Group C — candidate lookup signal: loose name match (any of given/family/full). Combine with other group-C signals for disambiguation. Mutually exclusive with id and slug; may be combined with url for fallback.

locationstringOptional

Group C — candidate lookup signal: person location (city, state, country). Combine with other group-C signals for bounded search. Mutually exclusive with id and slug; may be combined with url for fallback.

urlDomainstringOptional

Group C — candidate lookup signal: person URL domain (host only, no path). Combine with other group-C signals for disambiguation. Mutually exclusive with id and slug; may be combined with url for fallback.
