Setup contact card

contact_card.create() -> SetContactCard

POST/v3/contact_card

Creates a contact card for a phone number. This endpoint is intended for initial, one-time setup only.

The contact card is stored in an inactive state first. Once it’s applied successfully, it is activated and is_active is returned as true. On failure, is_active is false.

Note: To update an existing contact card after setup, use PATCH /v3/contact_card instead.
