# Update a contact

`PATCH /api/reach/v1/profiles/{profileUuid}/contacts/{contactUuid}`

Update a contact's attributes and custom field values.

Only the properties present in the request body are changed, so a partial body is enough
to change a single attribute. Sending a property as `null` clears it.

The response carries the contact's core attributes. Read back its tags, custom field
values, source and note with `GET /api/reach/v1/profiles/{profileUuid}/contacts/{contactUuid}`.

## Path parameters

- `profileUuid` string, required
- `contactUuid` string, uuid, required

  - `subscription_status` 'subscribed' | 'unsubscribed' | 'confirmed' | 'pending', nullable
  - `note` string, nullable
  - `fields` object[] — Set custom field values. Omit to leave untouched, send an empty array to clear them all.
