Create Contact

Create a contact for a company.

Use this to add a person to an existing company; this does not create a Tier 1 login.

Behaviour

status defaults to ACTIVE when omitted; the nested address shape is shared with contact updates.

reportsToId must name another contact in the same company (400 contact_invalid_reports_to otherwise).

A companyId that names no company you can reach answers 404 company_not_found — the only reason a create returns 404.

Requires the contacts:write scope.

Invalid request data.

Missing or invalid API key.

403

The API key lacks the required scope (scope_denied), or the operation is not permitted for this account (operation_not_permitted).

application/json

404

Resource not found.

429

The API key exceeded its request rate (rate_limit_exceeded) or its monthly quota (quota_exceeded). Both carry Retry-After; the RateLimit-* headers accompany rate_limit_exceeded only, since a spent quota says nothing about the bucket.
