# Get people saved search

> Returns count-level details for a saved people search: its name, query ID, and the number of people matched.

<Note> Free. This call does not consume credits. </Note>

## What you need

A people saved-search ID shared with the API; get one from [Get all saved searches](/api-reference/saved-searches/get-all-saved-searches).

## Behaviour

- Returns metadata and counts only (no per-person records); fetch the people with [Get people saved search results](/api-reference/people-saved-searches/get-people-saved-search-results).
- The saved search must be shared with the API (via "Share to API") or be a global search curated by Specter.
- Must be a people search, otherwise `400` with `NOT_SUPPORTED_PRODUCT`.
- Returns `404` if the search doesn't exist.

## What you do next

- **Pull the records.** Fetch matches with [Get people saved search results](/api-reference/people-saved-searches/get-people-saved-search-results).
