I cannot update contacts who don't belong to me

Hi guys,

I'm using APIv3 and I'm trying to read informations about an existing contact, who belongs to another user, but I can't, since (probably) using API is not possible to visualize users who don't belong to me.

Using admin page, I can read, update or delete users who don't belongs to me. I think this is a big problem.

PS: My user is an administrator.

Cheers.

Hi Lucasas,

By default you only receive the contacts owned by the signed in user through the API.
To override this you must use the team listing param, it's the 5th last in the Listing Params table for contacts in our documentation.

To summarize, your request url should look like this:

https://app.onepagecrm.com/api/v3/contacts?team=true

Thanks @Liam... I'm gonna try it.

No problem, let me know how it goes.
If you're interested in shaving off 3 bytes you can substitute "1" for "true" in url query params:
