# GET /api/v2/contact-roles

List contact roles

- MCP id: contact-roles.index
- Scope: api:read:customers
- Permission: customers::read
- Rate cost: 1 unit, read bucket. `view=detail` makes it 3. Adds: `q` +2.
- Cache-Control: private, max-age=60

Returns the contact roles the caller may read, by name A-Z.

Roles are one list for the whole organisation, so the whole list is one short page. Nothing is includable on this resource: pass q to search the name, and read `contacts_count` or follow `links.contacts` for the contacts assigned a role.

## Parameters
- view (string, optional): Which field set to render.
- per_page (integer 1 to 100, optional): Rows per page. At most 25 when `include` names a to-many relation; a larger value is 400 invalid-query-parameter.
- cursor (string, optional): Opaque keyset cursor from a previous page's links.next. Never construct one by hand.
- page (integer 1 to 1000, optional): Opt in to page-number paging: 1-based, at most 1000. Omit it, the default, to page by opaque cursor, which is what links.next hands you. Cannot be combined with cursor. Published only on collections that count their rows on every request.
- filter[created_at] (timestamp (YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ssZ), optional): Creation timestamp. Pair with `sort=id` for a stable full export. Operators: = gte lt.
- filter[updated_at] (timestamp (YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ssZ), optional): Last-write timestamp. Use for incremental sync. Operators: = gte lt.
- q (string, optional): Free-text search over `name`. At most one substring match per request: `q` together with a `contains` filter is 400 invalid-query-parameter.
- sort (string, optional): Up to three keys, comma-separated, each optionally prefixed with `-` for descending.
- X-Request-Id (header, optional): A correlation id of your own. It is recorded in our logs next to the server's request id but never returned: the response header always carries the server's id. A value that does not match the pattern is discarded silently, never rejected.
- If-None-Match (header, optional): The ETag a read is conditional on. A match is answered 304 with no body.

## Response 200
- id (integer, required): Unique identifier.
- name (string ≤ 255, required): Role name as shown in the UI, unique across the organisation. This is the default sort key and the field `?q=` searches.
- created_at (timestamp (YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ssZ), required): Creation timestamp.
- updated_at (timestamp (YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ssZ), required): Last-write timestamp; use for incremental sync.
- contacts_count (integer ≥ 0, required): Number of contacts assigned this role.
- links (ContactRoleLinks, required)
  - self (url, required): The canonical URI of this record.
  - contacts (url, required): Contacts assigned this role.
