contacts

Notifications for organisation contact events. Xero emits an event when a contact is created or updated (including archival, which Xero models as an update). The payload does not include the contact body; subscribers GET `resourceUrl` against the Xero Accounting API using credentials for `tenantId` to retrieve the current resource.

About AsyncAPI

The AsyncAPI specification describes event-driven APIs the way OpenAPI describes request/response APIs. A channel is the named pipe — a webhook URL, a Kafka topic, a WebSocket route, an MQTT subject — that producers and consumers publish or subscribe to. Each channel carries one or more messages with structured payloads, and an operation declares whether a given party sends or receives on that channel.

Browse every event-driven channel on the APIs.io network or compare with the broader Naftiko capability, Agent Skill, and MCP server surfaces of the same providers.
