Q: How can I export my contact list for data management, bulk updates, or backups?

A: You can now easily export your contact records directly from the Contacts list view using the new Export button.

This functionality is designed for seamless data management:

  • Format Consistency: The default export structure is identical to the required Contact import format, meaning the exported file can be used for immediate re-import after making offline edits (e.g., for mass updates).

  • Flexible Output: The export respects the current filters applied to your list, allowing you to export a full or filtered subset of contacts.

  • Custom Reporting: Although the default is optimised for re-import, the export utilises existing template functionality, allowing for customisation of output fields if a different reporting structure is needed.
