# Get a person by ID

`GET` `/v2/persons/{personId}`

Operation ID: `getPersonV2`

Returns the customer-facing identity for the specified person. The person must be owned by the authenticated customer. SSN is masked — only the last four digits are present via `ssnLast4`. The full unmasked SSN is available only via `GET /v2/persons/{personId}/ssn`. Returns 404 if the person does not exist or is not visible to the authenticated customer.

## Path parameters

- `personId` (string, uuid, required) - ID of the person

## Responses

- `200` - Person retrieved successfully.
- `401` - No valid bearer token was presented
- `403` - The token does not carry the required scope
- `404` - The requested resource does not exist or is not visible to the caller
- `429` - Rate limit exceeded. The caller has exceeded the maximum number of requests allowed per rate-limit window for the authenticated credential. NOTE: The response body for this status deviates from the standard V2 error shape ({message, details, code}). The body contains only a top-level "message" string. Clients should treat the Retry-After header as the authoritative retry signal and must not parse the message string.
- `500` - An unexpected server error occurred
