create-contact-in-folder
create-contact-in-folderDestructive
Create a new contact in a specified folder to keep contacts organized outside the default Contacts folder.
Instructions
Add a contact to the root Contacts folder or to the contacts endpoint of another contact folder.
š” TIP: Creates a contact inside a specific folder (instead of the default Contacts folder). Body is a contact resource: { givenName, surname, displayName, emailAddresses: [{ address, name }], businessPhones: [], mobilePhone, jobTitle, companyName, ... }. The existing create-outlook-contact (POST /me/contacts) writes to the default folder only; use this when organizing contacts into named folders. Get the folder id via list-contact-folders.
