/bff/contact/detail-change-email

Changes the primary email address of a contact. Requires the current email for verification. When the target e-mail is already taken by another contact in the same organisation, the call fails unless confirmMerge: true is provided, in which case the duplicate is merged into the current contact first.

Body · 5
idstringRequired

Contact external ID.

currentEmailstringRequired

Contact email address.

The system validates the input as a standard email address and automatically applies normalization and canonicalization.

All API responses return the normalized form, and each email address is unique per organisation within the system.

Phone-only contacts: Since 2026-06-10 a contact may exist without an e-mail when it was registered only by phone (e.g. imports of phone-only records). Responses that expose such contacts use API_EMAIL_NULLABLE instead, where this field can be null. Endpoints that accept e-mail as input still require a valid value here — phone-only creation goes through admin-only import / BFF flows.

newEmailstringRequired

reasonstringRequired

Reason for the email change.

confirmMergeboolean

Set to true to acknowledge that another contact already owns the target e-mail; that contact will be merged into the current one before the rename.
