Get a single author by the source network ID on a specific instance of the network
Details
Returns a single author by the source network ID on a specific instance of the network. Use this method when the networktype is type "lithium" or "crm" in order to specify which instance the author ID is used for. To get a single author based on a Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter username/handle or ID use:
/authors/networks/networktype/ids/networkid/authors/networks/networktype/handles/networkhandle
Notice in this response that there is no personList array. This is because we are retrieving all known Author instances associated with the specified Care author. In this example, we passed in the id field value (2279), and we were able to retrieve all known author data related to that ID including custom CRM author attributes, custom author attributes, and system attributes.
