What are you trying to achieve:
I am having issues with this code. Not sure where I am going wrong with it. thought is to create or update a contact and then send via a triggered email I created. But it is throwing coees

import { triggeredEmails } from 'wix-crm-frontend';
import { contacts } from 'wix-crm-frontend';

$w.onReady(function () {
    // Assuming the dataset ID is "#dataset2"
    $w("#dataset2").onAfterSave(() => {
        // Get the values from the input fields
        const preferredName = $w("#preferredName").value;  // Get value from the "preferredName" input
        const email = $w("#email").value;  // Get value from the "email" input

        // Prepare the dynamic values for the triggered email
        const dynamicValues = {
            "full name": preferredName,  // Map the "preferredName" to "full name"
        };

        // Create or update the contact in Wix CRM before sending the email
        createOrUpdateContact(email, preferredName, dynamicValues);
    });
});

// Function to create or update a contact in Wix CRM
function createOrUpdateContact(email, preferredName, dynamicValues) {
    contacts.queryContacts()
        .eq("emails", email)
        .find()
        .then((results) => {
            if (results.items.length > 0) {
                // If contact exists, send the email
                const contactId = results.items[0]._id;
                sendEmailAfterSubmission(contactId, dynamicValues);
            } else {
                // If contact doesn't exist, create it
                contacts.createContact({
                    emails: [email],
                    name: preferredName  // Or other contact info
                })
                .then((newContact) => {
                    sendEmailAfterSubmission(newContact._id, dynamicValues);
                });
            }
        })
        .catch((error) => {
            console.error("Error querying or creating contact:", error);
        });
}

// Function to send the triggered email with dynamic content
function sendEmailAfterSubmission(contactId, dynamicValues) {
    const emailId = "URqYHxi";  // Your unique triggered email ID

    triggeredEmails.emailContact({
        contactId: contactId,  // Contact ID from Wix CRM
        templateId: emailId,  // Triggered email template ID
        variables: dynamicValues  // Send the dynamic values (like "full name") to the email template
    })
    .then(() => {
        console.log("Triggered email sent successfully");
    })
    .catch((error) => {
        console.error("Error sending triggered email:", error);
    });
}

Have you tried query using “primaryInfo.email” ?

contacts.queryContacts()
        .eq("primaryInfo.email", email) // Filter by email address
        .find()
        .then((results) => {
