Hello, I want to do an API call from a custom code inside a deal based workflow to look for the contact in this deal that has a certain contact type. Will use this get api : [https://api.hubapi.com/contacts/v1/search/query?q=testingapis&hapikey=demo](https://api.hubapi.com/contacts/v1/search/query?q=testingapis&hapikey=demo) How can i call this api from my custom code action and add the property to it ? Thanks, Chris ---

I was able to fetch a contact by adding his email as a property in the deal, and then calling this property from the enrolled deal using my custom code. This way i didn’t require any sort of API to fetch the contact email. Stored the email in a variable and will use this variable as a parameter in the enroll API. My next step will be to figure out how to enroll this email that i fetched in a new workflow using the enroll API.
