Get a customer
const url = 'https://api.usesonora.com/v1/customers/example';const options = {method: 'GET', headers: {Authorization: 'Bearer <token>'}};
try { const response = await fetch(url, options); const data = await response.json(); console.log(data);} catch (error) { console.error(error);}curl --request GET \ --url https://api.usesonora.com/v1/customers/example \ --header 'Authorization: Bearer <token>'One customer, with its account team, health and eCSAT; add ?include=enrichments for its enrichment values. Name it by its Sonora id, or by your own system’s id with idType. A Sonora, Salesforce or HubSpot id finds a customer whether or not it is archived; a domain or custom_field:<key> value matches live customers only, since an archived account can share it with a live one.
Requires the customers:read scope.
Authorizations
Section titled “Authorizations”Parameters
Section titled “Parameters”Path Parameters
Section titled “Path Parameters”The customer’s Sonora id — or, with idType, its id in another system, or its domain.
Query Parameters
Section titled “Query Parameters”How id names the account: sonora (the default; Sonora’s customer id), salesforce, hubspot, domain, or custom_field:<key>. So GET /customers/001Ab…?idType=salesforce finds a customer by its Salesforce Account id.
Comma-separated optional parts of the response: enrichments.
Responses
Section titled “Responses”The customer.
A customer account, with its account team and the fields edits have taken over.
object
Domains whose email addresses belong to this customer.
Annual recurring revenue.
Sonora’s running summary of the account.
Your workspace’s custom fields, by key — only fields visible in Sonora.
object
As the field’s type says (GET /customer-fields). A user field is a list of people: [{ name, email }].
The record’s id in another system.
object
The system the id is from: salesforce, hubspot, zendesk, intercom, …
The customer’s health, as the customers page shows it.
object
The state’s key on your workspace’s health scale — by default thriving, healthy, emerging_concerns or at_risk — or no_data when nothing could be scored.
The state as Sonora shows it: Thriving, At Risk, …
0–10, higher is healthier. Null when there is nothing to score (no_data).
Whether your scale counts this state as at risk.
ECSAT: satisfaction Sonora estimates from what the customer says, averaged over recent touchpoints.
object
The average estimated satisfaction of the customer’s scored calls, emails and tickets, 0–10, to one decimal.
The days back the average covers.
Only with ?include=enrichments: the latest value of each enrichment that has one, in GET /enrichment-configs order.
A record’s latest value of one enrichment.
object
The enrichment’s id (GET /enrichment-configs/{configId}).
What the value is: short_text/long_text a string, number a number, score 1–10 (10 strongest), boolean, date YYYY-MM-DD, email, url, or select one of options (a list of them with multiple).
As outputType says. Null when there wasn’t enough to go on, for any outputType.
Why the AI gave this value, when it said.
Calls, emails, meetings and tickets Sonora has seen.
Moves on any change to the record, including Sonora’s own bookkeeping (engagement counts), so a sync may see a customer again with no field you read changed.
object
This resource’s canonical URL on the API host.
The account team beyond the owner, with each member’s role where the CRM gives one.
object
Null for a name typed in by hand or synced without a user.
Fields an edit — in Sonora or through this API — has taken over from sync: your CRM’s changes to them are held back until someone resumes sync on the field in Sonora. Standard fields by name (arr, owner), custom fields as customFields.<key>.
