Create a contact
Create a new contact. Returns 409 on (projectId, email) conflict — use /api/contacts/upsert for create-or-update semantics.
Requires the contacts:write scope — Create, update, and delete your contacts.
API key authentication. Use a sk_* (FULL) or pk_* (SENDING_ONLY) key as the bearer token. Public keys (pk_*) are restricted to the email-send endpoints and the self-serve list subscribe/unsubscribe pair; every other endpoint — event tracking included — answers 403 for them. In scope terms (used by /api/v1/* operations): FULL keys hold every scope; SENDING_ONLY keys hold only emails:send.
