Get full details of a specific contact by their ID — names, phones, emails, address, tags, and linked records. Use after [`contacts_list`](/tools/contacts/contacts_list) when you need every field for one contact. For multiple contacts, pass contact_ids instead. Returns the complete contact record.

## Parameters

| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `contact_id` | string | No | UUID of a single contact to retrieve · Format: UUID |
| `contact_ids` | array of strings | No | Array of contact UUIDs for batch retrieval (max 100). Use either contact_id OR contact_ids, not both. · Max items: 100 |

## Example prompts

- "Pull up the full contact card for Dave Romero."
- "Show me everything we have on file for my escrow officer Linda Tran."
