For API version 31.0 and later, invoking this method on a PersonAccount object also returns `accountId` or `contactId`, and `personAccount` (`true` if the object is a PersonAccount, `false` otherwise).
`error`	string	If the API call was successful, this variable is undefined. If the API call failed, this variable returns an error message.
