So, in this case, hypothetically, AccountId would not be a field on Contacts but would rather be a field on Companies. (I use this as an illustration; it’s not guarantee of the future.)

But, good news: the REST API will soon have a resource for Companies, separate from Contacts. In the meantime, you can [create Companies through the XML-RPC API](https://integration.keap.com/t/rest-api-create-contact-company-name-and-tags/17868/4).
