## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to locate current contact or address information for a specific individual using known identifiers. Suitable for debt collection, legal process serving, reconnecting with lost contacts, or identity resolution workflows.

## Known failure modes

- No data found for provided identifiers — returns empty or null result
- Insufficient identifying information provided — may return error or multiple ambiguous matches
- Rate limiting or payment failure — 402 payment required
- Input schema not well-defined, leading to unpredictable request formatting
