Summary

Updates a Blooio contact's display name by sending a PATCH to /contacts/{contactId}. An empty Name clears the stored name.

Inputs

  • Contact (required) — Contact identifier, either a phone number in E.164 format or an email address. It is URL-encoded into the request path.
  • Name — New display name. It is sent as the body field name. If left empty, the value is sent as null, which clears the existing name.
  • Request Options — Node-level HTTP settings: batching (items per batch and interval in ms), ignore SSL issues, proxy URL, and timeout in ms (default 10000).

Output shape

The JSON response from the Blooio API for the PATCH request, which is presumably the updated contact record. The node passes it through without transformation.

The source doesn't show the response schema. An unknown contact or invalid identifier will likely produce an API error. Authentication uses the blooioApi credential against https://backend.blooio.com/v2/api.

Examples

Example 1: Rename a contact after a CRM lookup.

Resource: Contact, Operation: Update, Contact: +15551234567, Name: 'Jane Doe'.

Example 2: Clear a contact's display name.

Resource: Contact, Operation: Update, Contact: jane@example.com, Name: left empty (sent as null).
