createContact( )

Creates a new contact.

The info object must include at least one of the following:

  • Name
  • Phone number
  • Email address

By default, if the call contains an email already in use by another contact, the new contact won't be created. To override this behavior, set allowDuplicates to true.

Authentication
  • When developing websites or building an app with Blocks, this method may require elevated permissions, depending on the identity of the user calling it and the calling user’s permissions.
  • When building apps without Blocks or for headless projects, you can only call this method directly when authenticated as a Wix app or Wix user identity. When authenticated as a different identity, you can call this method using elevation.
  • Elevation permits users to call methods they typically cannot access. Therefore, you should only use it intentionally and securely.
