I took the C# tag off in my last edit, but left it in the title by mistake! Again, nothing C# specific here, might get a better reach by removing the reference to it.

There is nothing C# specific in the question, and it actually pertains to any language's consumption of the async api.

| Jul 30, 2013 at 14:47 | comment | added | Mike Chale | You need to configure an external ID field for upserting. It's a custom field on your object that is marked as external ID and it's what SF keys off of for upserting. Otherwise you're just doing an update followed by an insert. | |

@MikeChale Well, this was helpful na15.salesforce.com/help/doc/en/… however, I still wonder: I don't have any external IDs for the Contacts object; so how can I tell SalesForce to upsert?
