Campaign

Import upto 2 lakh contacts in one go

Bring your whole customer list in from a CSV — up to 2,00,000 contacts in one file — with names, tags and custom fields, ready to segment and broadcast to.

Before you start

  • A CSV file with a header row. Excel/Google Sheets: File → Download → CSV.
  1. 1

    Prepare the file

    One contact per row, with a phone column (with country code, e.g. 919876543210 or +91 98765 43210). Optional columns: name, email, company, city, country, industry, tags, birthday — and any of your own.

  2. 2

    Open the import

    WhatsApp Automation → Contacts → Import, and choose the file. Columns with standard names are recognised automatically.

  3. 3

    Map your own columns

    Columns that aren't standard (e.g. “Course”) can be mapped to a custom field, so they can fill {{1}}, {{2}} in campaigns later.

  4. 4

    Choose what happens to existing contacts

    “Update their details” fills in new details for numbers you already have; “Skip them” leaves them as they are. Duplicate numbers in the file are imported once.

  5. 5

    Import

    Click Import. Large files go in batches with a progress bar — keep the tab open until it says Import complete, with how many were added, updated, skipped and invalid.

Good to know

  • Broadcasting to a list straight away? Broadcast Campaigns → New → Upload CSV imports it and maps columns in the same step.
  • Only import people who agreed to hear from you on WhatsApp. A bought list gets blocked fast and drags your quality rating down.
  • Bigger than 2 lakh? Split the file and import each part.
