Inputs

- isDebugMode — Whether to include full request and response info in the output. Default false.
- authMethod — Authentication method. Default 'oauth1'. Options: OAuth1 (oauth1), OAuth2 (oauth2).
- additionalFields — Additional contact category fields. Collection with options: name (string, enter name), externalId (string), isInactive (boolean, inactivate), id (string, internal ID), Prefer (options, 'respond-async' for async execution), private (boolean, user-only), refName (string), replace (string, sublist names comma-separated), replaceSelectedFields (boolean, require fields in 'replace' query), X-NetSuite-Idempotency-Key (string, RFC 4122 UUID for async requests), X-NetSuite-PropertyNameValidation (options, Error/Warning/Ignore), X-NetSuite-PropertyValueValidation (options, Error/Warning/Ignore).

Output shape
Returns success status and, if isDebugMode is enabled, full request and response information. Async execution governed by Prefer header and idempotency key.
PUT /contactCategory/{id} updates an existing contact category by external ID. If the ID does not exist, NetSuite behavior depends on configuration; the operation maps to this PUT endpoint as declared in displayOptions.
