POST/api/v1/contacts/companies

Before you start

Use an account owner key. Include an existing ID when updating a company.

Result

Store the returned company ID and saved details.

Charges and safe retries

This changes the account directory; inspect the existing record before retrying an uncertain create.

Authentication

Send your account API key in the X-Api-Key header. Keep it on your server; never embed it in browser code.

Request examples

Replace the example values with your own inputs. Examples do not run on this page. Production requests can change your account or incur charges.

  • company: The saved or selected company.

HTTP responses

Expand a status to inspect its documented response format and examples. Example prices, IDs and timestamps are illustrative values, not quotes or account records.
