Google Contacts - Updating/Adding New Contact

I have a workflow where I need to either need to ADD a new Google Contact or UPDATE an existing contact.

I could do a SEARCH and then a ROUTER for each one, but because the subsequent steps for each route are the same, I would have several duplicate steps in each tree. This is more time-consuming than anything but its also inconvenient as you cant see each leg of the tree without drilling into each one.

Is there an easy, straightforward way to accomplish this?

I wish there were a "Create or Update Contact" action item for Google Contacts, just like the LeadConnector app does, so theres no need to search for the contact, the system will automatically create a new one if it doesnt exist, or update the fields with the data presented.

Hi @livefastdiehard,

Google Contacts API doesn't have an endpoint that can be used to 'Create or Update Contact'. You would need to use the Router to achieve your use case. You can copy the steps from one route to another to save some time.
