Contacts scopes

This page lists the Contacts API endpoints and webhooks available in Nylas v3, and shows which scopes they require. These scopes allow Nylas to read and modify end-user data on the provider, and trigger webhook notifications. Add the scopes for each provider to your provider authentication application.

The tables list both the most restrictive scope available that grants Nylas enough access, plus additional scopes that grant Nylas access but are less restrictive. If your app is already using one of these more permissive scopes for other purposes, you do not need to add the more restrictive scope.

All scopes must include the fully qualified URI path for the provider, for example https://www.googleapis.com/auth/... for Google, and https://graph.microsoft.com/... for Microsoft Graph. These have been omitted due to space constraints.

The ☑️ character appears near the most restrictive scope you can use to enable functionality on each provider. More permissive scopes that you can use instead appear under the minimum option.
