Update one or more contact roles on a domain. This is an update endpoint, not a contact creation endpoint: send at least one of registrant, admin, tech, or billing, and only the documented camelCase v2 contact fields. Unknown fields and legacy internal contact aliases are rejected on this per-domain route. For .se, .nu, and .test domains, changing the registrant personal or organisation number requires identity verification; when the identifier is preserved instead of applied, the response reports this in updateOutcome.registrantRegistrationIdentifierApplied: false and updateOutcome.registrantRegistrationIdentifierBlockedReason: "identity_verification_required". Successful responses echo the full contacts payload with current action gates.
