Import Customers From Mail Contact

You can import customer data from your email contacts across multiple providers. Each upload creates or updates a Datalist and can be tagged for filtering, segmentation, or access control.

Perform the following steps to import customers from Mail Contacts:

  1. Navigate to Data > Import Customers from the left menu.
  2. In Name your list, enter a name for the Datalist where this data will be stored.
  3. In Tags, add any keywords to help identify or segment the uploaded data (optional).
  4. From the dropdown, select Import from Mail Contacts as your data source.
  5. Choose your email provider from the available options:
  6. Gmail - Access your Google contacts
  7. Outlook - Access your Microsoft Outlook contacts
  8. Yahoo mail - Access your Yahoo contacts
  9. Hotmail - Access your Hotmail contacts
  10. Click Continue to authenticate and initiate the import.

Note: Once uploaded, FirstHive pulls your contact list, validates the data, and maps the fields to the standard schema. Upon successful upload, you can see the list under Manage Datalists.
