Uploading lead files

Before you start uploading your lead file, please check that it meets the following conditions:

  • There are no more than 50,000 leads in your file. Larger files might slow down Dialer's performance.
  • The size of the file is no more than 100 MB.
  • The format of your files is CSV.
  • All your files have the same lead structure.
  • The leads in the file are of proper quality. Low-quality leads can cause longer idle time for your agents and lower ASR.

To upload a lead file:

Open Upload

Go to Leads & Campaigns > Lead Files and then navigate to the Upload New Lead File tab.

Keep the CSV defaults

Leave the default values in the .csv delimiter and .csv escape fields.

Select the options

Select the checkboxes as necessary:

  • Mark duplicate leads as error leads - You will see an error message in the Lead State field if the lead's phone number is already available in the system. The lead will not be processed.

Otherwise, if the checkbox is blank, you will see an information message only.

  • Extended address parsing (works slowly) - Select it for the system to check the lead's phone number for correctness and use Google algorithms to fix it. However, the file will take longer to upload.

  • Ignore first line - Select the checkbox so that the header row of your lead file is skipped.
    Leave the check box cleared only if the uploaded file does not have the header row.

  • Enable HLR Lookup while parsing for mobile phones and set non-valid phones as error -Select to enable HLR lookup.
