Quo ACTION
Update Contact
Update one or more fields on an existing contact. Only the fields you provide are changed; omitted fields are left as-is. Run List Contacts to find a contactId. Example: call with contactId from List Contacts and company="Acme Corp" → updates just the company field and returns the updated contact record. See the documentation
