## Introduction

Look up specific people by name. Combine with `companyName` or `companyDomain` to pinpoint the right person. Combine it with any other filter in the same request (AND logic).

## AI agent prompt

```text theme={null}
Read https://docs.seamless.ai/api-catalog/contact-filters/full-name. Using SEAMLESS_API_KEY, call POST https://api.seamless.ai/api/client/v1/search/contacts with the `fullName` filter to find contacts matching: <your target>. Page with nextToken and keep each searchResultId.
```

## Example

```bash cURL theme={null}
curl -X POST https://api.seamless.ai/api/client/v1/search/contacts \
  -H "Token: $SEAMLESS_API_KEY" -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"fullName": ["John Smith"], "limit": 25}'
```

```python Python theme={null}
import os, requests
rows = requests.post("https://api.seamless.ai/api/client/v1/search/contacts",
    headers={"Token": os.environ["SEAMLESS_API_KEY"]},
    json={"fullName": ["John Smith"], "limit": 25}).json()["data"]
```
