Linking - Contact Link

Use this method to create a link between a Contact record in Kindful and a contact record in your external application. Kindful interprets records with your application-specific ID set as "known" by your application.

This is relevant to the following other methods:

• When querying for "new" records: records without your application-specific external ID will be assumed to be "new", and will therefore be returned. Setting the your application-specific external ID field on records that you already have in your system will prevent them from being returned in this call, thereby preventing duplication in your system.
• Kindful will track changes to records containing a value for your application-specific external ID so that changes to those records can be returned to you upon a request for updates.
