Hi, I am trying to call the Contacts API using Postman. Although I can successfully call the API and get back some data, I couldn’t get all properties in the contact list.

In the contact list, I did some customization that to add more columns in the list (address, phone no., member level etc.), but I found that the response could only return email, last name and first name.

May I know it there any special settings are needed after I configured my contact columns?

Hi @CCheung  
You will need to append a query parameter to your call for properties outside of those default properties  
An example: [https://api.hubapi.com/crm/v3/objects/contacts?properties=test%2Chotdogs&archived=false](https://api.hubapi.com/crm/v3/objects/contacts?properties=test%2Chotdogs&archived=false)  
Notice the properties= query param. the %2 is just an url encoded comma.

Hi @CCheung ,  
Use this for fetching full contacts details:  
[https://api.hubapi.com/contacts/v1/contact/vid/\<vid\>/profile?hapikey=demo](https://api.hubapi.com/contacts/v1/contact/vid/%3Cvid%3E/profile?hapikey=demo)  
Or follow this api documentation :  
[https://legacydocs.hubspot.com/docs/methods/contacts/get\_contact](https://legacydocs.hubspot.com/docs/methods/contacts/get_contact)  
Hope this helps!
