In my req I have to create a Contact and associate it with web role, with two web api call I'm able to achieve it,

For Creating Contact:

STEP 1

api/data/v9.1/contacts

{
"lastname" : "asdf test with role 3",
"emailaddress1": "asdf@asdf"
}

and then I'm associating Contact rec with existing webrole

STEP 2

api/data/v9.1/contacts(New record guid)/adx_webrole_contact/$ref

{
"@odata.id":"---/api/data/v9.1/adx_webroles(webroleguid)"
}

It seems they have N:N relationship

Can we combine both call like in single webapi call

Hello,

You can automatically assign a webrole to a contact using a workflow and the built-in custom action portals > assign web role.
