titleContact Upload File Structure

Keep the following items in mind when creating your contact file:

  • Only csv file format is supported for upload into MetaField
  • File must contain the following fields, separated by a comma: First Name, Last Name, Email Address, Work Phone Number (note that phone number is optional and may be omitted)
  • If a comma is needed for one of these fields (e.g., Client Name is ABC Company, Inc), you need to enclose the entire field in quotes ("ABC Company, Inc").
  • Your file should not contain headersĀ

titleDuplicate Contact Records

While uploading contact records, MetaField will not upload Contacts that may be duplicate records. During this process, it looks for records that match the Contact name exactly.
