Adding New Contacts

To add a new contact use data streaming in JSON format via Public API.

Use the Add Contact method to create the user's profile to an account or update an existing one.

Note

  • This method doesn't generate events, so you won't use it to launch workflows.
  • Using the specified methods, contacts with email addresses will be created as confirmed, as imported from a file. It doesn't allow configuring double opt-in.
  • If you want to store some custom information about your users, create additional fields before uploading contacts.
  • For adding/updating bulk of contacts use the Add Contacts method. This resource allows adding/updating up to 3000 contacts with one request.
