Import or export client contacts

Contact imports use a preview before confirmation. Review flagged rows before adding the file to your directory.

Before you start

Use a UTF-8 CSV containing name, email and phone only, with no more than 500 rows or 512 KB. Have permission to use the contact data.

  1. Prepare the file

    Follow the column instructions on Clients → Import CSV. Exclude private notes, intake answers and unrelated personal data.

  2. Preview the import

    Select the file and review the proposed rows. Correct invalid or flagged data in your source file, then upload a fresh preview.

  3. Confirm the same file

    When the preview is right, select the same CSV to confirm. Look for Your contacts were imported, then check a few records in Clients.

  4. Export when needed

    Use Clients → Export CSV for a contact export. Store the file securely and share only with people who should have access.

What success looks like

The intended contacts appear once, with reviewed names and contact details.

If it doesn’t work

This CSV was already imported

Do not repeatedly upload it. Check the directory and correct individual records as needed.

The file or rows are rejected

Check UTF-8 encoding, allowed columns, size/row limits and field errors. If the result is uncertain, inspect existing records before retrying.

Still not resolved?

Use your existing invitation conversation for private-preview help. Include the exact action, visible error and time, without passwords, private links or client records.
