Hello Tiến

First you need the permission for Contacts. I don't know why are you using the "systemXHR" permission instead. I recommend you to read [1].
Second, if you're using the Contacts API, you will need to be a privileged application, so specify in "type": "privileged" or see the documentation on [1] again.

I think you are unable to create a new Contact because you don't have the proper permission.

[1] https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Apps/Manifest

Hope it helps.
Kind regards.

Can you provide some more info, please? A trace from the Console would
be great.
