Editing a contact record
Keep a contact's details accurate by editing the record whenever something changes.
Steps
- Open the contact's detail page.
- Click Edit in the header. The contact form opens as a side panel titled Edit Contact.
- Update any fields you need.
- Save your changes.
What you can edit
The edit form has the same fields as when you create a contact, including:
- First Name, Last Name, Email, Phone
- Company Name, Company Website, Job Title
- Country, Department, Industry, Nature of Inquiry
- Number of Employees
- Source and Requirements
- Any custom fields your company has configured
Good to know
- Editing a contact is logged in the contact's Activities timeline.
- For quick changes to Type, Status, Product, or assignees, you don't need the full form — use the Quick Actions card instead.
- The Edit button is hidden while a contact is archived. Unarchive it first to make changes.
