# Get contact base metrics



## OpenAPI

````yaml /api-reference/openapi.en.yaml get /contacts/insights
openapi: 3.0.3
info:
  title: Connecta DESK Public API
  version: 1.0.0
  description: >-
    Public API of Connecta DESK, available at `/api/v1`. Access uses a token
    generated in the tokens module. Each token has permissions per **module ×
    method**, and every list read is paginated.


    ## Authentication


    ```

    Authorization: Bearer sk_live_a1b2c3d4e5f6g7h8i9j0k1l2m3n4o5p6

    ```


    The token belongs to a **company**, not to a user. The company used is
    always the token's company, so sending `companyId` in the body has no
    effect. A missing, invalid, revoked or expired token gets the same `401`
    response.


    ## Order of checks


    1. **token** → `401`

    2. **active company** → `403`

    3. **API enabled on the plan** → `403 ERR_API_NOT_ENABLED` (does not apply
    to on-premise)

    4. **company rate limit** → `429`

    5. **token permission** → `403 ERR_API_FORBIDDEN_SCOPE`


    ## User ids


    Every user id in the API is the user's id **in this company**, the same one
    `GET /users` returns. This applies to what the API returns (`user.id`,
    `assignedTo.id`, `userCreated.id`) and to what it accepts (`userId`,
    `userIds`, `assignedToUserId` and the `{id}` in user routes).


    The same person can work in several companies, with a different name and
    profile in each one, and has a different id in each company.


    An id that does not belong to this company returns `404`, with the same
    message as an id that does not exist.


    ## Pagination


    Every list `GET` is paginated. The `meta` contains only `page`, `perPage`
    and `hasMore`, without the total number of records. To go through
    everything, keep advancing `page` while `hasMore` is `true`.


    ## Idempotency


    Optional on `POST`/`PUT`, through the `Idempotency-Key` header. If you
    repeat the call with the same key and the same body, you get the stored
    response (with `Idempotent-Replay: true`). With the same key and a different
    body, the response is `409`.
