# Create or update one or multiple entities.

`POST /contacts/push`

A uuid will be generated for any entity that doesn't have one yet. Posting entities without uuid multiple times will also create them multiple times.

## Response `207`

Array of responses, matching the posted array of entities. Provides an HTML status code for every entity and an optional body (e.g. a string with an error message).

- PostResponse[]
  - `body` object
  - `statusCode` integer

## Other responses

- `default` — When the request body has one or no entry. The status code of the response entry matches the response code and may have an optional body (e.g. a string with an error message).
