# Introduction

> Learn how to configure and add your first contact with SendX golang SDK

## Prerequisites

To get the most out of this guide, you’ll need to:

* [**Create a SendX Account**](https://app.sendx.io/register)
* [**Install GoLang >v1.19.0**](https://go.dev/doc/install)

## 1. Install

```shellscript Shell theme={null}
go get github.com/sendx/sendx-go-sdk
```

## 2. Getting Started

```go Go theme={null}
package main

import (
	"context"
	"fmt"
	"os"
	
	sendx "github.com/sendx/sendx-go-sdk"
)

func main() {
	ctx := context.WithValue(
		context.Background(),
		sendx.ContextAPIKeys,
		map[string]sendx.APIKey{
			"apiKeyAuth": {Key: "YOUR_API_KEY"},
		},
	)

	contactRequest := *sendx.NewContactRequest() // ContactRequest |
	contactRequest.Email = sendx.PtrString("jane@doe.com")
	contactRequest.FirstName = sendx.PtrString("Jane")
	contactRequest.LastName = sendx.PtrString("Doe")
	contactRequest.Company = sendx.PtrString("Tech Solutions Inc.")
	contactRequest.LastTrackedIp = sendx.PtrString("34.94.159.140")
	contactRequest.CustomFields = &map[string]string{"K2mxBVReqBhbwx9e0ItSea": "VIP", "7o3Tl1aY2yKp2X1aflRjOL": "Special Offer Subscriber"}
	contactRequest.Lists = []string{"1244"}
	contactRequest.Tags = []string{"MKdhTovsTJDetCyrJmRySL"}

	configuration := sendx.NewConfiguration()
	apiClient := sendx.NewAPIClient(configuration)
	resp, r, err := apiClient.ContactAPI.CreateContact(ctx).ContactRequest(contactRequest).Execute()
	if err != nil {
		fmt.Fprintf(os.Stderr, "Error when calling `ContactAPI.CreateContact``: %v\n", err)
		fmt.Fprintf(os.Stderr, "Full HTTP response: %v\n", r)
	}
	// response from `CreateContact`: Response
	fmt.Fprintf(os.Stdout, "Response from `ContactAPI.CreateContact`: %v\n", resp)

}
```
