How to Create a New Contact Record and Link it to a Vendor & Product
This tutorial will walk you through on how to create a new Contact record that is linked with a Vendor and to a Product
Prerequisites
Before starting, ensure you have the following:
- Access to Contacts APIs.
- An API Client (Client ID and Secret) used to generate an authentication token for API utilization.
- API Client must possess necessary scopes:
contacts:readcontacts:writeon token generation.
Refer to the Getting Started with Request Tokens guide for details on how to authenticate.
Step 1: Get the List of Vendors
Creating a new Contact requires an existing Vendor.
Use the Contacts GET List of Vendors endpoint to retrieve the list of available vendors.
Step 2: Get the List of Products
Specific Product(s) list could be linked to a Contact that would be the main point of communication for these products.
Use the Contacts GET List of Products endpoint to retrieve the list of available products.
Step 3: Create a New Contact
Once the Vendor and the list of Product(s) to which a Contact would be associated with have been acquired, a new record/entry for a contact can be created.
Use the Contacts POST Create Contact endpoint to create a new contact.
