Accela Contacts API is one of 109 APIs that [Accela](https://apis.io/providers/accela/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network, described by a machine-readable OpenAPI specification. Tagged areas include Contacts. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes an OpenAPI specification, API documentation, an API reference, and authentication docs.

A reference contact captures information about people or organizations involved in a business process. Contacts include licensed professionals, such as contractors, architects, engineers, and developers for which your agency maintains saved data. Contacts also include individuals related to a specific application or parcel, such as the applicant, billing contacts, or legal representatives. You can add new contacts to your system, or update information about existing contacts. As you manage applications and parcels on your system, you can keep track of certain individuals related to an application or a parcel. For example, you can keep track of the legal counsel for a property owner, or the accountant responsible for any fees assessed on a certain application.
