leads.get
REST
ShippingPOST /api/v1/leads/getMCP tool
Liveleads.getExposed on: REST API · Shop MCP server · Claude connector · Dash (in-app copilot) · Zapier. Part of the Leads domain.
Operating contract
The complete working record — contact details, the car they asked about, the services they are interested in, tags, estimated value, the owner, the follow-up date, and when they were last contacted — in one call rather than six.
customer_id is set once the lead has been backed by a real customer record, which every intake path does; when it is set, customers.get, vehicles.list and jobs.list all take it and will tell you whether this person has bought before.
lost_reason is only ever set on a lead whose status is lost, and it is the shop's own words about why.
Refuses when nothing in this shop has that id, which includes a lead that was merged away or archived.
Who may call it
- Permission
leads.accessThe caller must hold Leads at the ACT level. A read-only dashboard grant on the same section is refused.- Plan
- Every planNo plan gate. Available on every Service VIN plan.
- Retries
naturalNaturally idempotent — running it twice leaves the same world as running it once. A retrying integration needs no key.- Rate class
readCounted against the read budget — the widest of the four.

The four gates run in this order on every surface, and the order is not arbitrary — see Authentication.
| Status | Code | When |
|---|---|---|
| 404 | not_found | The id is unknown, or the feature is not enabled for this account. Deliberately the same answer for both. |
| 403 | forbidden | This login does not hold leads.access. |
| 422 | validation_error | An argument was wrong. The message names the field. |
| 429 | rate_limited | Too many read calls. Back off and retry. |
| 500 | internal_error | Something failed on our side. Nothing was changed. |
