## Settings​

Each contact must be stored with a unique identifier. Here, you choose which identifier type to assign to the new contact.

| **Identifier Type** | Description |
| --- | --- |
| **Email** | Uses the contact’s email address as the unique identifier. |
| **Mobile Number** | Uses the contact’s mobile phone number as the unique identifier. |
| **Mobile App Alias** | Uses the alias generated by a mobile app as the unique identifier. |

## Actions

| **Action** | Description |
| --- | --- |
| **Create** | Creates the contact profile with the specified identifier. If the identifier is not unique, creation fails with an error. |

> [!NOTE]
> Group assignement:
> 
> New contacts are not assigned to a group automatically. Until added to a group, they receive only system messages and single messages for which they match the segmentation criteria.
