# Get contact list metadata

`GET /v1/contact-list`

- Authentication: required (Bearer token)
- Required scope: `api.topics.view`

Returns the org's contact list metadata: name, description, default
subscription status, live topic and contact counts, and the last
successful sync time (`null` until the first sync completes). SES
allows a single contact list per account, so this returns one object,
not a collection.

Returns `404 contact_list_not_synced` when the org has no contact
list yet — a distinct code from a generic `not_found` so clients can
detect the un-synced state. The list appears automatically once AWS
is connected and a sync runs; no client action is required.

## Example request

```bash
curl 'https://api.sendops.dev/v1/contact-list' \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $SENDOPS_API_KEY"
```
