# Class CIM_UserContact
extends CIM_UserEntity

UserContact contains the details related to contacting a user. This information will be promoted to UserEntity in a later major release of CIM, but cannot be promoted at this time since UserEntity is abstract today, with no keys. Key and required properties cannot be added to a class in a minor version release since this breaks backward compatibility.
