# How to Add a Contact to a Mailbox

Add recipients to **Contacts** using their **Mailbox UUID**, then reuse them when creating envelopes. You can pick saved contacts even if their email is hidden. If you don’t know the UUID, see [Where can I find the mailbox UUID?](/user/mailbox/mailbox-user/how-to-find-a-mailbox-id-uuid.md).
