<h3>Required Parameter Group</h3>
<dl>
<dt><strong>Receiver variable </strong></dt>
<dd>OUTPUT; CHAR(*)
<p>The receiver variable that receives the information requested. You can specify the size of the area to be smaller than the format requested as long as you specify the length parameter correctly. As a result, the API returns only the data that the area can hold.</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>Length of receiver variable</strong></dt>
<dd>INPUT; BINARY(4)
<p>The length of the receiver variable provided. The length of receiver variable parameter may be specified up to the size of the receiver variable specified in the user program. If the length of receiver variable parameter specified is larger than the allocated size of the receiver variable specified in the user program, the results are not predictable. The minimum length is 8 bytes.</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>Format name</strong></dt>
<dd>INPUT; CHAR(8)
<p>The format of the contact information to be returned. The possible values are:</p>
