Method does not exist or incorrect signature: [List<Contact>].addError(String)
Hi
I am getting the following error when I am in the developer console and if I attempt to trigger the process on the contact layout.
What I am trying to do is return a message as an error to the contact screen in the event that the number of contacts meeting a specific criteria is exceeded.

the addError method does not exist on lists, only on individual sObjects

I swear that I had tried that at some point.
Thanks again.
