In situations where you want to import contacts to a third-party system (for example, 3Dolphins Sales SRM system) from a Sitecore or where you have purchased a list of new contact from a marketing company, you can import these contacts from a CSV file directly into a list of contacts in 3Dolphins Sales SRM by clicking 'Import Contact From CSV' button.

In the import contacts window, you can view and download a sample file CSV by clicking the 'Sample File' button or clicking 'Upload File' to upload a CSV file. You can import only one file at a time. If you want to upload a different file, you must click 'Delete' to delete the file that is ready for upload.

Upload Contact from CSV

If you tick 'Merge Duplicate Contact', it means new contacts with identical Email or phone number on existing contact will be merged as one contact. Click the 'Import' button when the file is ready for upload.

Once you create a contact or import a contact, you can associate a contact record with other modules, such as companies and deals. It allows you to track relationships between contacts and companies or deals and allows synchronization of relevant activities between related modules.
