Importing uses a template generated by the app. The wizard lets you select columns, download the file, upload it and review rows before adding contacts.

Prepare and import

1

Configure columns

Open import from Contacts and choose template columns. Include information you will populate.
2

Download the template

Download the second-step file and fill it in. Preserve header names and order.
3

Upload the file

Use CSV or XLSX. The app compares its headers against the configured template.
4

Review and confirm

Check the preview and flagged rows. Correct the file or remove rows before confirming. Wait for the upload result.

Data and format

Keep phone numbers as text in your file to avoid scientific notation or lost digits. Do not invent email addresses to pass validation; ask about another import path if your list lacks them.

Duplicates

Initial validation identifies repeated rows using the combination of name, email and phone. It flags them before import. This does not guarantee merging with existing organization records. Review a small batch before uploading the entire database again.

Common problems

Frequently asked questions

Only if its columns match the selected template. Names and order must match, not just the kind of contact information.
Do not assume automatic replacement or merging. Check a sample and its result before uploading the full database again.
The current wizard validates row emails. Do not use invented addresses; ask support for an appropriate path for your list.
