This will update the role with ID 12345, to the contact with ID 9876543.

ss_developer_key="@system.dev_key@";
var rs=new ssRecordSet(null);
rs.addfieldnames("userid,rolelist");
idx=rs.getnewrecnumber();
rs.addfieldvaluebyname(idx,'userid',9876543);
rs.addfieldvaluebyname(idx,'rolelist',',12345,');
var rsnew=contact_update(false,"",rs,false);

ss_developer_key="@system.dev_key@";
// get users existing rolelist
filter='userid=9876543';
var rs= contact_find(false ,"","rolelist",filter,"",0,1);
var roles = rs.getfieldbyname(1,"rolelist");
// append new role
roles += "56789,";

// now update the user with the new rolelist
var rs=new ssRecordSet(null);
rs.addfieldnames("userid,rolelist");
idx=rs.getnewrecnumber();
rs.addfieldvaluebyname(idx,'userid',9876543);
rs.addfieldvaluebyname(idx,'rolelist',roles);
var rsnew=contact_update(false,"",rs,false);
