Note that third-party messenger services (e.g., Facebook, Telegram, etc.) all follow the same pattern and do not disclose the real user identities. When uploading customer messenger contact information, it is required that both the ''messengers.<n>.id field'' and the ''messengers.<n>.user_id'' have values. Bright Pattern Contact Center software uses these two values in place of the real user identities.

Import Format

The Contact Center Administrator application allows you to import contacts, including their addresses, email addresses, external IDs, and other properties in bulk, by uploading a specially formatted spreadsheet.

If creating a spreadsheet from scratch isn’t optional, you may export your existing contacts list, change it, and upload it back. Opening the exported contact list spreadsheet will provide you with the list of named fields. This allows you to identify the precise information to be found within the individual columns.

Import and export operations are activated by the Import and Export buttons. Both the .TXT and the .CSV file formats are supported for import and export.

Note that third-party messenger services (e.g., Facebook, Telegram, etc.) all follow the same pattern and do not disclose the real user identities. When uploading customer messenger contact information, it is required that both the messengers.<n>.id field and the messengers.<n>.user_id have values. Bright Pattern Contact Center software uses these two values in place of the real user identities.

The Import/Export fields are as follows:


Field Name Description
id ID number for the record
first_name Customer’s first name
last_name Customer’s last name
title Customer’s title
position Customer’s position within the company
summary Summary information regarding the client
