using namespace independentsoft::graph::contacts;

int main()
{
    try
    {
        GraphClient client;

        client.client_id = "67cb3333-209e-454e-b7bd-55a4d201270f";
        client.tenant = "independentsoft.onmicrosoft.com";
        client.username = "info@independentsoft.onmicrosoft.com";
        client.password = "password";

        Contact contact;
        contact.display_name = "Alice Smith";
        contact.given_name = "Alice";

        contact.phones.push_back(Phone("555-111-777", PhoneType::Mobile));

        Contact createdContact = sync_wait(client.create_contact(contact));

        std::cout << "Id = " << createdContact.id << std::endl;
    }
    catch (const GraphException& ex)
