Configuration
4 fields, 2 required. A dotted path is a nested object and name[] an array of objects — the editor renders the same tree.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
contact_id Id of the contact whose field is being set. | string | Yes | — | — | — |
field_id Id of the custom field to set. | string | Yes | — | — | — |
value The value to store, formatted for the field's type. | string | No | — | — | — |

One shape.
