# Contact

> The Contact object defines the customer who holds an account or who is otherwise a person to contact about an account.

The Contact object defines the customer who holds an account or who is otherwise a person to contact about an account.

An `Account` object requires a contact for the BillToId and SoldToId fields before the account can be active. The Contact object provides the attributes that these Account object fields need.

## Supported calls

You can use this object with the following calls:

* create()
* query()
* update()
* delete()

## Additional field detail

Id

The ID of this object. Every object has a unique identifier that Zuora automatically assigns upon creation. You use this ID later when you work with the object. For example, if you send an `amend()` call to modify an existing subscription, then you need to include the specific `Subscription` object's ID with the call.

The ID for the Contact object is `ContactId` .
