Summary

Updates an existing DocuSign address book contact by ID, changing any of its email, name, company, or shared flag.

Inputs

  • Authentication — Auth method: JWT (Service Integration, default) or OAuth2 (User Authorization).
  • Contact ID (required) — ID of the contact to update.
  • Update Fields — Collection of optional fields to change: Email (new email address), Name (new display name), Company (new organization name), Shared (boolean, whether the contact is shared with other account users).

Output shape

A single item containing the DocuSign API response for the updated contact.

The source pack shows only the handler signature (handleContactUpdate), not its body. The exact response fields and the handling of unset fields are not visible, so they are not documented here. Errors from DocuSign, such as an invalid ID, are raised as node API errors, with retries on rate-limit and 5xx responses.

Examples

Example 1: Correct a contact's email address after a bounce.

Contact ID set to the contact's ID; Update Fields > Email set to the new address.

Example 2: Share a contact with the whole account and update its company.

Contact ID set; Update Fields > Shared = true, Company = 'Acme Corp'.
