Audience
- Operators maintaining day-to-day contact records
- Teams importing medium/large prospect lists for outbound workflows
Prerequisites
- Access to the Contacts page in your workspace
- Contact data in valid format (manual entry, CSV, or VCF file)
- For bulk imports, source file reviewed for duplicates/format issues
Choose your path
Small list (manual path)
- Open Contacts.
- Select Add Contact.
- Enter contact name and phone number (plus optional fields).
- Save and confirm the record appears in list view.
- Contacts are available immediately for call workflows.
Large list — CSV import
Use this path when you have a CSV export from another system (e.g. VaultRE, or any spreadsheet-based contact list).- Open Contacts and select Add Contact → Import via CSV.
- Upload your CSV file (drag/drop or file picker).
- Voqo AI processes the file and imports valid contacts.
- Open Import History (top-right of the Contacts page) to check the import status.
- Valid contacts are imported and visible in your contact list.
- Contacts that already exist are updated rather than duplicated (matched by phone number or email).
- Contacts without any phone number or email are skipped.
Large list — VCF import
- Open Contacts and choose Batch Upload.
- Upload a VCF file (drag/drop or file picker).
- Review parsed contacts in preview.
- Resolve or remove invalid rows.
- Select Import Contacts to finalise.
- Valid contacts are imported and visible; invalid rows are flagged.
Import History
The Import History panel (accessible from the top-right of the Contacts page) shows a log of all past CSV import jobs for your workspace. Each entry shows:- Status — Completed, Processing, or Failed.
- Started / Completed — timestamps for the job.
- Contacts imported / skipped / failed — a breakdown of the result.
Validation and error-handling rules
- CSV files should include at least a name and one contact method (phone or email) per row.
- Phone numbers are normalised to international format (E.164) automatically.
- Duplicate detection matches on phone number or email — existing contacts are updated, not duplicated.
- VCF files must be valid VCF format; each entry should include at least name and phone number.
- If multiple numbers exist in one contact, one preferred number may be selected by import logic.
Automatic contact updates
- Automatic contact creation can add contacts from inbound callers.
- Automatic name update can refresh name values from newer verified interactions.
Troubleshooting
Import preview shows many invalid contacts
- Re-export your source contacts to a clean VCF.
- Normalise phone number formats before import.
- Remove malformed entries and retry import.
Imported contacts are fewer than expected
- Check that each row includes at least one phone number or email.
- Check duplicate-number collisions in the source file.
- Split very large lists and import in smaller batches.
Contact does not appear in call context
- Confirm call used the same number saved in contact record.
- Verify workspace context and refresh contact list.
CSV import job is stuck in “Processing”
- Wait up to 10 minutes — large files take time.
- If the Import History panel flags the job as potentially interrupted, re-upload the file.
