# How to Add a Contact to a Mailbox

Add recipients to **Contacts** using their **Mailbox UUID**. Then reuse them when you create envelopes.

Saved contacts help you find recipients faster and keep working even if their email is hidden. If you don’t know the UUID, see [How to Find a Mailbox ID (UUID)](/user/mailbox/mailbox-user/how-to-find-a-mailbox-id-uuid.md).
