# Contact

{% hint style="warning" %}
**IMPORTANT!**

**Server Key ID** and **Server Key Secret** will be used to construct a request and add as a **HTTP Header**.\
To construct a request, please format your generated **Server Key ID** and **Server Key Secret** and wrap it to **Base64**, so the format will be like this:

**encodeToBase64(SERVER\_KEY\_ID:SERVER\_KEY\_SECRET)**\
\*don't forget to add colon (:) between Server Key ID and Server Key Secret

Then, put the base64 string on your **HTTP Header Field** with **key “Server-Key”** and then construct URL request and parameter for the request.
{% endhint %}

### Sync Contacts

Update and/or delete contacts.

Note that contact works one-way. A user may add another user to his/her contact list without requiring the added user to do the same in return. It works just like how a contact/phone book should.

{% hint style="warning" %}
**IMPORTANT!**

Contact deletion always run the last. If the contact list contains duplicate owner-contact pairs with one's isDeleted set to true, then that record will always be deleted.
