This array will usually has a length of one element only. If it contains more than one element, it means that the contact has been passively merged and so the Contact Consumer can safely ignore the rest of the elements of the array because they contain IDs for mozContacts that are an exact copy of the one corresponding to the ID stored in the first position of the array. | This array will usually has a length of one element only.

The ''owner'' field of the object is the name of the datastore that contains the actual mozContact information the Contact Consumer is interested on. So the Contact Consumer needs to query this datastore with the value of the ''contactId'' field to obtain the mozContact information. | The ''owner'' field of the object is the name of the datastore that contains the actual mozContact information the Contact Consumer is interested on. So the Contact Consumer needs to query this datastore with the value of the ''contactId'' field to obtain the mozContact information. It is possible that the consumer has not enough privileges to access the provider's datastore. In that case, it should silently fail and continue with the next GCDS record. If it has access to the provider's datastore and once it gets the mozContact information it can store it locally in its indexedDB and repeat the process for each ID stored in the GCDS. | ||
