Modify a CNContact's properties in iOS

I have a User model item, and I want to use this User information to create a contact that can be shared through a UIActivityController. This is currently not possible because the properties of CNContacts are read-only: 

if let name = user?.firstName {
    contact.givenName = name
}

if let lastName = user?.lastName {
    contact.familyName = lastName
}

if let companyRole = user?.companyRole {
    contact.jobTitle = companyRole
}

if let company = user?.company {
    contact.organizationName = company
}

Is it possible to create a contact? I don't see any constructs/initializers that allow me to create one.

You should work with a CNMutableContact instead of a CNContact. That way, the properties will be modifiable.
