--- title: "The contact page, editing and deleting" description: "A contact's page gathers its details, addresses, media and related records, with Edit and Trash in the header." lastUpdated: 2026-09-30 order: 30 --- ## What it does A contact's page opens with the name, a type badge, and who created it and when. Selecting the name copies it. The Details card comes next, with the picture, names, reference, email, phone and default currency, then a Media card for files you attach to the record. The column on the right shows the reference widget, which is Primary Contact on an organisation and Company on a person, then the billing and shipping addresses, then the tags. The header offers Edit, which opens the same form the record was created with, and a More Actions menu with View audit history and Trash. The arrow buttons beside them move to the previous and next contact in the list you arrived from. ## How to use it 1. Open a contact from the list. 2. Select Edit to change its details, then save. 3. Select More Actions for the audit history, which opens in its own tab, or to delete the record. 4. Confirm in the Delete this contact window. The reference widget follows the type. An organisation shows its primary contact, a person shows their company, and each shows when none is set. The previous and next buttons turn off at either end of the list. They follow the filters and sort from the list you arrived from. Hermes updates a contact from a sentence, and an MCP client updates or deletes one through its own tools. ## Related - [Creating a contact](/docs/contacts/create.md): The create form takes a person or an organisation, with names, email, phone, currency and two addresses. - [Tags on a contact](/docs/contacts/tags.md): Tags are free-text chips on a contact, suggested from the ones your organisation already uses. - [Notes on a contact](/docs/contacts/notes.md): Every contact and every contact location has a notes timeline for conversations, files and the record's own history. - [Audit history on a record](/docs/account/audit-history.md): A record's audit page is the dated list of what was changed on it, by whom, with the value before and after each change. ## Changes - [Guided quests and help for every feature](/changelog/2026-09-30-guided-quests-and-product-help) - 2026-09-30
