New feature: contacts import

Posted: March 16th, 2009 | Author: Jacek | Filed under: Backstage | 3 Comments »

NOTE: Creamflow is now known as Funnela

Recently we have added ability to import contacts exports to CSV file from any software. It it’s one of the most popular formats used by many programs.

To import contacts you should go to settings section and choose “Import contacts” icon (Settings -> Import contacts).

Then you have to select file, choose it’s encoding and select how many of first lines belong to header. You have to select target contacts group too.

In next step Creamflow will try to recognize types of data in columns. In the “Header/samples” column you will see some data from your file. This will allow you, if necessary, correct matching types of data to columns.
