How to manually upload an external Email List

1. To upload an email list click on the “Subscribers >Import” in navigation.  

2. You can upload lists in CSV or .xls or .xlsx format.  It is important that you "clean" your list before importing it.  Delete columns that do not match up with  subscriber database fields listed below and try to remove duplicates or rows that are missing emails etc.   

3. When your list is formatted and cleaned, drag and drop your file to start the upload and column matching.  ​

 

3.  Before importing complete the following:

1. If your file has header rows, check the "First Row Contains Headers" option.
   
2. To eliminate duplicate subscribers and/or update existing subscribers, select the "Overwrite Data" option.
   
3. You can tag the Source of your data using the Source Field.  This will allow you to keep track of the source of any manually imported lists and create targeted segments.   
   
4. Match each column from your file with the subscriber db fields.
   

4. Enter your email address and select the "Import Subscribers" button. An email will be sent to you when the import has finished.  If you list is very large the import can take some time. 

If you have any questions about your custom email lists or would like another data field/attribute added, please contact our support team.
