Import contacts from CSV

Importing is the fastest way to fill your database, and Ariyes does the tedious parts for you.

Before you import

Export a CSV from your current tool. Make sure you have permission to contact everyone on it — Ariyes checks your suppression list before every send, but consent is your responsibility.

Steps

  1. Go to Contacts → Import and upload your CSV.
  2. Map your columns to Ariyes fields (email, name, phone, and any custom fields). Ariyes detects headers to speed this up.
  3. Review the validation summary — invalid rows are flagged, and duplicates are detected on email (and phone where available), so you don't create the same person twice.
  4. Optionally enable email verification to screen out bad addresses before they hurt your deliverability (see Verify emails on import).
  5. Confirm to import.

Tips

  • Clean, clearly-named column headers make mapping faster.
  • Split very large files if you want to review a sample first.
  • Deduplication means you can safely re-import an updated file without creating duplicate people.
