    <p>It is possible to embed visualforce pages onto page layouts. So I would recommend creating a visualforce page like the example below. Use the apex code you already have that is performing the webservice callout as the controller extension for this page and you'll be able to show the fields.</p> <p>The only thing I'm unclear about is what specific parameter do you want to pass to your webservice? and how is it being passed to the contact page currently? If it's just a url parameter, your controller extension will have access to it using the ApexPages class. If it's the Id of the contact the constructor of the controller extension will be able to get it from the StandardController parameter.</p> <p>Some important things to note:</p> <ul> <li>the visualforce page must use the Contact standardController for it to be available as an embeddable visualforce page.</li> <li><p>If the contact view action is already overridden the embedded visualforce page will not render. However if the page is already overridden you wouldn't have this problem because you could add the required code straight to the override page.</p> <p></p> <pre><code>&lt;apex:pageBlock id="block"&gt; &lt;apex:pageBlockSection id="section"&gt; &lt;apex:pageBlockSectionItem id="item"&gt; &lt;apex:outputLabel value="External Value:" for="externalValue" /&gt; &lt;apex:outputText id="externalValue" value="{!externalField}" /&gt; &lt;/apex:pageBlockSectionItem&gt; &lt;/apex:pageBlockSection&gt; &lt;/apex:pageBlock&gt; </code></pre> <p></p></li> </ul>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
