Contact → Search Contacts
AI-generatedSummary
Searches SalesSuite contacts using a saved filter or configured filter groups, with optional sorting and pagination. Can return all matching results and emit either one item per contact or a single item containing the contacts array.
Inputs
- Search Source — Choose the filter builder, raw JSON filter groups, or a saved Filter ID. In builder mode, conditions within each group are combined with AND and groups are combined with OR; leave the groups empty to search all contacts. Raw JSON uses the same group structure. A saved filter ID must be entered manually.
- Filter Groups — In builder mode, add conditions against contact properties using type-specific operators and values. Select options can use listed values or manually entered keys; date conditions support exact and relative dates, intervals, and ranges. A condition can instead be supplied as raw JSON.
- Filter Groups (JSON) — In raw JSON mode, supply the
orFilterGroupsarray; groups use OR and each group’sandFilterItemsuse AND. - Filter ID — In saved-filter mode, enter the ID of a SalesSuite filter; the UI notes that no API endpoint is available to list saved filters.
- Order By — Add sort rules by property, ascending or descending, with optional null placement. If omitted, the API default returns newest contacts first.
- Return All — When enabled, fetches results across pages, subject to the Max Pages safety cap (default 200).
- Page — Zero-based page number, used when Return All is disabled (default 0).
- Page Size — Maximum results per page when Return All is disabled (default 25; allowed range 1–100).
- Options — Max Pages caps automatic pagination when Return All is enabled. Split Into Items controls whether each contact is emitted separately or contacts are placed in one item.
Output shape
A list of n8n items containing matching contacts.
With Split Into Items enabled, emits one item per contact; otherwise emits one item containing a contacts array. Pagination is controlled by Return All or Page and Page Size.
