## Actions

### Contact-level Actions

| **Action** | Description |
| --- | --- |
| **Edit Contact Profile** | Opens **Contact Profile** to view and edit stored values for the selected contact. See [Contact Profile](/v1/docs/contact-profile). |
| **Control Address** | Opens **Control Address** to manage address-level control for the groups associated with the selected address. See [All Contacts: Control Address](/v1/docs/all-contacts-control-address). |
| **Password** | Opens the **Password** window for the selected contact. See [New Password](/v1/docs/new-password-window). |
| **Blacklist** | Opens **Add Contact to System Blacklist** to add the contact (or related domains) to the system blacklist, preventing future import. When you add a contact to the system blacklist, the system permanently deletes all profile data that is stored for the contact. |
| **Memberships** | Opens **Group Members** to see the groups where the contact is a member. |
| **Export Contact** | Prepares an export of the selected contact. |
| **Anonymize Contact** | Starts the ​**Anonymize Contact**​ function. Use with care; this function does not require confirmation. When you anonymize a contact, the contact is removed from the system, and this action cannot be recovered. |
| **Message History** | Opens **Message History** to review messages sent to the contact. See [Message History](/v1/docs/message-history-window). |

## Column Definitions

| **Column** | Description |

| **Actions** | Provides options for handling the contact (see the actions listed above). |
| **ID** | A system-generated Contact ID is assigned when a new contact is added; it cannot be changed. |
| **Identifier** | Optional external identifier (e.g., used to match an external system). Maximum length: “200”. |
| **Name** | Displays last name and first name if stored; empty if not available. |
| **Address \| SMS \| Mobile Push** | Shows the contact’s email address, mobile number, or push token, depending on available data and configuration. |
| **Status System-wide** | Indicates system-wide status (e.g., “Active”, “Deactivated”). |

A unique identifier automatically assigned by Mapp Engage when a new contact is added to the system.

- The **Contact ID** cannot be changed or edited.
- In some parts of Mapp Cloud, this identifier may also be referred to as **User ID**, but both terms describe the same concept.
- You can find the Contact ID by going to *Audience > Contact Management > All Contacts* and checking the ID column.
