Use the Import button located at the top of the Contacts Tab for either agents or clients. This feature can also be used to update existing contacts if there is a matching email.


Preparing Your Spreadsheet for Importing

❇️ Pro-tip: Follow the listed instructions exactly!

Make sure your file has separate columns each labeled for "First Name", "Last Name", etc., and that it is a . CSV (not a .xls or .xlsx file type).

When importing your contacts, it's important to make sure your CSV file has the necessary information for each field. It's also important to verify that the columns are in the correct order listed below. These are the fields our importer will look for on the CSV file:

Agent Contacts:

Client Contacts:

Important Tips

  • Duplicate Column Names

    • If your spreadsheet has multiple columns with the same name you will see this warning
      ​

      ​

  • Import Complete Message

    • Once your file is imported you will see a summary message. You will be shown which rows have been skipped or not included due to a missing required field or other error.

    • If you re-upload the .csv with corrections the contacts will be updated but not duplicated.
