# Update Exchange Contact

| Step Details |
| --- |
| **Introduced in Version** | 4.0.0 |
| **Last Modified in Version** | 7.12.0 |
| **Location** | Integration > Exchange Web Services |

The **Update Exchange Contact** step allows users to update contact information on the Microsoft Server. The Id property in the Contact parameter must be a valid Contact Id for the user in Exchange. This value is set in the results from the Search Exchange Contacts and Create Exchange Contact steps.

### Prerequisites

- This step requires the [Exchange Web Services module](https://documentation.decisions.com/docs/microsoft365-exchange) to be [installed](https://documentation.decisions.com/docs/installing-modules-decisions) before it will be available in the toolbox.
- A [dependency](https://documentation.decisions.com/docs/project-dependencies) must be created after installing the module in order for the Step to be used.

## Common Errors

### The Remote Server Returned an Error

If the remote server is improperly entered, the step will cause an error.

To correct this, input a URL that is properly spelled to effectively connect to the designated server.
