Contacts → Update a contact
AI-generatedSummary
Update a contact in the Emailit system by specifying the contact's ID and optionally modifying fields such as first name and last name.
Inputs
- id (required) — The unique identifier of the contact to update.
- Additional Fields — Optional fields to update on the contact, including 'First Name' and 'Last Name'.
- returnAll — Whether to return all paginated results or only a single page (default is false).
- Options — Optional settings such as sending a custom JSON body that overrides other fields, adding custom HTTP headers, adding query-string filters, batching controls (items per batch and interval), debugging output, pagination settings, and request timeout.
Output shape
a single JSON object representing the updated contact.
If 'returnAll' is enabled for pagination, the node handles fetching all pages according to the configured pagination options. Debug option adds request details under a 'debug' entry in the output. Custom body JSON merges deeply with standard field inputs, with custom body values taking precedence.
Examples
Example 1: Update a contact's first name and last name by specifying its ID.
Set resource to Contacts, operation to Update a contact, enter the contact ID, and provide new values for first_name and last_name in Additional Fields.
