Inputs

Field	Type	Required/default	Meaning
ticket_id	string	Required	The ID of the ticket to get the contact from

Output shape

Paths are relative to this action's output. Select them from the builder's variable picker; do not add a ticket wrapper to actions that return top-level fields. Nullable property fields and empty defaults are not proof that a value was retrieved.

Path	Type	Meaning
contact_id	string	First contact ID in the returned ticket associations; empty when none are returned.
exists	boolean	True when an associated contact ID is returned. This does not identify the latest message sender.

Behavior and limits

Returns the first associated contact ID from the returned association page. With multiple contacts it does not select by role or prove that this is the sender of the latest message. Add an explicit selection strategy when that distinction matters.

No association or a missing resource gives contact_id: "" and exists: false. Check this before calling Get Contact.
