Setup contact card

client.contactCard.create(ContactCardCreateParams { first_name, phone_number, image_url, last_name } body, RequestOptionsoptions?): SetContactCard { first_name, is_active, phone_number, 2 more }
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 itโ€™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.
