Get Contact Information — Use the `/contacts/contactInformation` endpoint to receive information for the contact. Here you can see if a contact is External or Internal, and if it is a Personal or Business account.	`const options = { method: 'GET', headers: { Accept: 'application/json', Authorization: 'Bearer USER' } }; fetch('https://prod.api.getborderless.com/contacts/contactInformation', options) .then(response => response.json()) .then(response => console.log(response)) .catch(err => console.error(err));`
Update Contact Information — Update contact information with the `/contacts/updateContactInformation` endpoint. The information you can update varies by account type, which you can retrieve from the `/contactInformation` endpoint. Please refer to the page here.	`const options = { method: 'POST', headers: { Accept: 'application/json', 'Content-Type': 'application/json', Authorization: 'Bearer USER' } }; fetch('https://prod.api.getborderless.com/externalContact', options) .then(response => response.json()) .then(response => console.log(response)) .catch(err => console.error(err));`
