Changes to the Contacts API in Nylas v3
Changes to the Contacts API in v3
Nylas v3 includes the following changes to the Contacts API:
- Contact objects are now returned as JSON objects, instead of being listed as comma-separated values.
- All Contacts endpoints now require a
grant_id, an email address, or — if you're using access token authentication — the/me/construction (see/me/syntax for API calls for more information). - Currently, Nylas polls for changes to contacts for Google accounts in five-minute intervals.
- The
GET /contacts/{id}/pictureendpoint has been deprecated. Instead, you can now include the?profile_picture=truequery parameter in a Get Contact request to get the contact's profile picture.
