Getting Contact Views through the API

Getting Contact Views through the API

Hi - I would like to get a user's contact view ids (cvid) plus any shared with that user .  I can get the contacts in a view using:

https://crm.zoho.com/crm/private/json/Contacts/getRecords?authtoken=xxxxxxx&scope=crmapi&cvid=xxx

In order to do this I need to have the cvids and their names...

Is this possible?

Thanks in advance
Martin
