# Dismiss a suggested contact

> Stops suggesting an email to the authenticated user, for good. Dismissing an email that was already dismissed, or that isn't suggested, changes nothing. It does not add or remove a personal contact; to accept a suggestion instead, use `POST /v2/contacts`. If accessed using an OAuth access token, the `CONTACT_WRITE` scope is required.
