Query for contact email from case

HI,

I am trying to write an soql query on Case object. I am looking for contact email. How do i query for it?

 

I tried the below query and it gave an error.

 

 

Select Contact.id.Email from Case where Id=: c.id;

 

Any help is appreciated.

 

*c.id is case Id.

 

 

Thanks,

Mike

The SOQL is pretty straight forward. You dont need the id part of contact.id.email. Just use this simple query.

 

SELECT contact.Email from Case

Actually using it to do what you're asking could look like this:

Case myCase = [select contact.email from case where id=: c.id][0];
String email = myCase.contact.email;

Feel free to clarify if I've misunderstood your question.
