# Contact created

`POST contactCreated` (webhook)

Sent when a new contact is created in your audience. Contains a `contactIdentity` object and a full `contact` object with all of the new contact's properties (including custom properties). When double opt-in is enabled, contact webhooks do not fire until the contact is confirmed; `contact.created` only fires for form-created contacts once they confirm their subscription. `optInStatus` will never be `"pending"` or `"rejected"` for this event.
