Returns a contact by its ID.
To specify a project that contains the contact, use the ProjId value in the AuthenticationData object in the request body. To search for the contact in several projects, use the ProjIds value to specify the list of projects IDs in the AuthenticationData object.
To get several or all the contacts, use Contacts_LoadByCriteria.
Requirements
The authenticating user must belong to a user group that has the Read privilege for Contacts.
Parameters
The operation uses the following parameters:
AuthenticationData : AuthenticationData, required
An AuthenticationData object with the login information and the ID of the project (or the list of project IDs) that contains the contact.
ContactId : integer, required
The contact ID.
Result
A Contact object that contains the contact information.
Example
Sample Code
C#
string login = "[email protected]";
string password = "p@ssword";
int projID = 10372;
// The contact ID
int ID = 4;
ServiceSoapClient service = new ServiceSoapClient();
// Preparing AuthenticationData
LoginInfo loginInfo = service.GetLoginInfo("", login, password);
AuthenticationData authData = new AuthenticationData();
authData.AppCode = loginInfo.AppCode;
authData.UserId = loginInfo.UserId;
authData.PassCode = password;
authData.DeptId = loginInfo.DeptId;
authData.ProjId = projID;
// Loading the contact
Contact contact = service.Contacts_Load(authData, ID);
Console.WriteLine("{0} from {1}: {2}", contact.ContactPerson, contact.CompanyName, contact.Email);
Java
String login = "[email protected]";
String password = "p@ssword";
int projID = 10372;
// The contact ID
int ID = 4;
ServiceSoap service = new Service().getServiceSoap12();
// Preparing AuthenticationData
LoginInfo loginInfo = service.getLoginInfo("", login, password);
AuthenticationData authData = new AuthenticationData();
authData.setAppCode(loginInfo.getAppCode());
authData.setUserId(loginInfo.getUserId());
authData.setPassCode(password);
authData.setDeptId(loginInfo.getDeptId());
authData.setProjId(projID);
// Loading the contact
Contact contact = service.contactsLoad(authData, ID);
System.out.format("%s from %s: %s", contact.getContactPerson(), contact.getCompanyName(), contact.getEmail());
