Get basic contact info

GET

https://wawp.net/wp-json/awp/v1/contacts

Retrieves basic information for a single specific contact, such as their registered name and push name.
This endpoint is useful when you need details for just one user instead of fetching the entire contact list.

Developer Tips:

Any Contact: This works even if the contact is not in your address book, as long as you provide a valid phone number/Chat ID.

Normalization: The API automatically handles ID normalization (e.g., adding @c.us), so you can often just send the phone number.
