- Enable Operations Log — Optionally enable an audit trail output for each write operation including updates.
- ID (required) — The numeric ID of the Contact record to update.
- Input Mode (required) — Choose how to provide update data: as individual UI field pairs or as a JSON object.
- Fields — Specify one or more Bullhorn Contact fields and their new values individually. Only include fields to change. Shown when Input Mode is Field Pairs.
