# Get a snoozed contact by LinkedIn username

> Returns the snooze record for a LinkedIn username, such as `jane-doe-4b21a3` from `linkedin.com/in/jane-doe-4b21a3`. Pass the username alone, not the profile URL. The match is exact and case-sensitive. If several records share the username, one of them is returned.

Expired records are returned too: compare `snooze_until` with the current time. To check other identifiers, use `GET /v1/snoozed-contacts` with its filters.

Returns the snooze record for a LinkedIn username. Use it to check whether a person is snoozed before you call them or add them to a list.

The username is the part of the profile URL after `linkedin.com/in/`: for `https://www.linkedin.com/in/jane-doe-4b21a3` it is `jane-doe-4b21a3`. Pass the username alone, not the URL.

### Example

```bash theme={"system"}
curl https://client-api.salesfinity.co/v1/snoozed-contacts/by-linkedin/jane-doe-4b21a3 \
  --header 'x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY'
```

Response (200):

```json theme={"system"}
{
  "_id": "66f2b7d1c3a4e5f6a7b8c9d0",
  "team": "64f1a2b3c4d5e6f7a8b9c0d1",
  "user": {
    "_id": "680edc0d1504192884a148e0",
    "first_name": "Sam",
    "last_name": "Rivera",
    "email": "sam@yourcompany.com"
  },
  "linkedin_username": "jane-doe-4b21a3",
  "external_contact_id": "0035e00000AbCdEfGh",
  "email": "jane@acme.com",
  "phone_number": "+14155552671",
  "snooze_until": "2026-11-02T15:00:00.000Z",
  "createdAt": "2026-10-03T14:12:09.330Z",
  "updatedAt": "2026-10-03T14:12:09.330Z"
}
```

`_id` is the ID that [Get a snoozed contact](/api-reference/endpoint/get-snoozed-contact-by-id), [Update a snoozed contact](/api-reference/endpoint/update-snoozed-contact) and [Delete a snoozed contact](/api-reference/endpoint/delete-snoozed-contact) take.

### Matching

* The match is exact and case-sensitive.
* If several records share the username, one of them is returned.
* Expired records are returned too. The person is snoozed only while `snooze_until` is later than now.
* To check by email, phone number or CRM ID instead, use [List snoozed contacts](/api-reference/endpoint/get-snoozed-contacts) with its filters.

### Errors

| Status | When |
| - | - |
| 404 | No snooze record with this LinkedIn username in your team (`Snoozed contact not found`). |


## OpenAPI

````yaml GET /v1/snoozed-contacts/by-linkedin/{username}
openapi: 3.0.1
info:
  title: Salesfinity API
  description: >-
    The Salesfinity API is a JSON-over-HTTPS REST API for the Salesfinity
    parallel dialer.

    Use it to manage contact lists and notes, run the Sequencer, read call logs
    and AI call

    scores, pull team and SDR analytics, and enrich phone numbers and email
    addresses. Webhook

    subscriptions are managed in the Salesfinity dashboard rather than through
    this API.


    ## Base URL


    All requests go to `https://client-api.salesfinity.co`. There is no separate
    sandbox host;

    see the developer portal for the recommended way to test safely.


    ## Authentication


    Every operation requires an API key sent in the `x-api-key` request header.
    Generate a key

    in the Salesfinity dashboard under **Settings → Connections → API &
    Webhooks**. A key is scoped to a

    single team, and every response is filtered to that team.


    ```bash

    curl https://client-api.salesfinity.co/v1/team \
      --header 'x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY'
    ```


    ## Errors


    Every error the API returns is JSON with the same four fields, so a client
    can parse a

    failure the same way on every endpoint:


    ```json

    {
      "message": "Forbidden resource",
      "error": "Forbidden",
      "statusCode": 403,
      "request_id": "0f6d3c52-9f3e-4c1a-a4b8-2b1f7e5d9c10"
    }

    ```


    `statusCode` matches the HTTP status. `error` is the stable reason phrase to
    branch on.

    `message` is human readable, and is an array of strings when request
    validation fails.

    `request_id` identifies the request in Salesfinity's logs; include it when
    you contact

    support. Note that a missing or invalid API key returns **403**, not 401.


    ## Request IDs


    Every response carries an `X-Request-Id` header, and an error body repeats
    it as

    `request_id`. To trace a request end to end, send your own `X-Request-Id`: 1
    to 128

    characters of letters, digits, `.`, `_`, `:` and `-`. Otherwise Salesfinity
    generates one.


    ## Request bodies


    Bodies are JSON. A field the operation does not define is rejected with
    **400**

    (`property <name> should not exist`). A body may be up to 10 MB on
    `/v1/contact-lists` and

    `/v2/sequencer`, and up to 1 MB everywhere else; a larger one gets **413**.


    Writes that record a person take a `user_id`: the team member the call acts
    as. On

    contact lists and notes, a `user_id` that is not on the team gets **400**.
    On the Sequencer

    it must be an active member, or the call gets **403**.


    ## Pagination


    List endpoints accept `page` (1-based) and `limit` query parameters.
    Defaults, maximums and

    the response envelope differ by endpoint family, so read the `limit`
    parameter and the

    response schema on the operation itself. Scored calls and every paged
    `/v2/sequencer`

    list return `{ data, pagination: { total, page, limit, pages } }`. Call logs
    return that shape

    when a `filters[...]` parameter is sent, and `{ data, pagination: { total,
    page, next } }`

    otherwise.


    ## Rate limits


    Limits are per team: every API key on a team shares them. Requests are
    counted per bucket in

    fixed one-minute windows that start on the minute.


    | Bucket | Routes | Requests per minute |

    |---|---|---|

    | Sequencer reads | `GET /v2/sequencer/*` | 600 |

    | Sequencer writes | `POST`, `PATCH`, `PUT` and `DELETE` on
    `/v2/sequencer/*` | 300 |

    | Heavy reads | `GET /v1/call-log` and `GET /v1/scored-calls` (the lists),
    `/v1/analytics/*`, `/v1/sequences` and `/v1/sequences/{id}` | 120 |

    | Everything else | All other endpoints | 1200 |


    Every response to an authenticated request carries `X-RateLimit-Limit`,

    `X-RateLimit-Remaining` and `X-RateLimit-Reset` (seconds until the window
    resets). Over the

    limit the API returns **429** with a `Retry-After` header giving the seconds
    to wait. These

    are the current limits; Salesfinity gives notice before lowering them.


    ## Idempotency


    `POST` endpoints outside the Sequencer are not idempotent: cap retries, and
    confirm state with

    a `GET` before retrying a create. Every `POST /v2/sequencer/*` endpoint
    except the three

    `/preview` endpoints accepts an `Idempotency-Key` header. Keys are kept for
    24 hours per team.

    A retry with the same key and the same request replays the original
    successful response. The

    same key with a different body or path returns **409**, and so does a retry
    while the first

    request is still running, which is safe to repeat after a moment. A request
    that fails frees

    its key, so a retry after a 5xx runs the write again: confirm state with a
    `GET` before

    retrying a create that failed with a 5xx.

        mean that team member may not do this, for example a Sequencer call
        acting as an inactive member; `message` then says why. A `/v2/sequencer`
        write whose `user_id` has no active plan or seat gets `error` set to
        `NO_ACTIVE_PLAN` instead of `Forbidden`; assign the member a seat.

    TooManyRequests:
      description: >-
        Too Many Requests. The team has used its per-minute budget for this
        rate-limit bucket; the limit is shared by every API key on the team.
        Wait the number of seconds in the `Retry-After` header (never more than
        60), then retry. The request was refused before it ran, so retrying it
        is safe even for a write. Pace bulk work with the
        `X-RateLimit-Remaining` and `X-RateLimit-Reset` headers. See
        /api-reference/rate-limits.

    InternalServerError:

        Internal Server Error. Something went wrong on the Salesfinity side.
        Retry with exponential backoff. If it persists, contact
        hello@salesfinity.co with the `request_id` from the body, the request
        path and the timestamp. The contact-list, snoozed-contact and note
        routes do not validate an ID in the path, and the analytics routes do
        not validate `user_ids`: an ID that is not a 24-character hexadecimal
        string returns 500 there, and retrying does not help, so check the ID
        first.
