Contacts Service
The Contacts service is deprecated and users should instead use the People API advanced service.
This service allows scripts to access and modify Google Contacts for both individuals and groups.
The documentation lists various classes related to contacts and their fields, such as AddressField, CompanyField, Contact, and ContactGroup.
Several methods are documented for accessing and modifying information within these contact field classes, such as getAddress(), getLabel(), setAddress(), and setLabel().

Key actions include accessing, creating, removing, and updating contacts via the `ContactsApp`. Contacts contain details like name and address, managed through classes like `AddressField`, `EmailField`, and `PhoneField`. These field classes allow setting and getting addresses and labels and designating a field as primary. Custom, date and other specific fields are also managed, and are able to get and set labels.\n"]]
