Bulk import of Contacts

Posted on by 4
Hi,
 
I am trying to bulk import contacts and am trying to link them to Accounts, somehow the interface for mapping has changed and i can no longer see a lookup for guid in the options to link them to the account.
Is there any way in which i can link it to the accounts
 
Thanks

    Hello User,
     
    Can you go to power apps and then advance settings? You will see the old UI. Create a data map by import.

    Hi, It sounds like the bulk import interface you're using no longer includes an option to directly map contacts to accounts using the account GUID. This can make it challenging to automatically link contacts with their associated accounts during import. A lead distribution tool like LeadAngel could help by using account-based matching to automatically map contacts to the right accounts, streamlining bulk imports and improving data accuracy. This can be a flexible solution, especially if you handle large volumes regularly.

    Hi Amit,
     
    Thanks for the reply but i can not able to find the company name (lookup) in the dropdown as an option.
    I used to get this option with the old interface but since last week the interface for this has changed and in review mappings i cannot find this option.
     
    Many Thanks

    Hello User,
     
    Please refer below thread which will help you to resolve your issue.
     
    Just like above link you can map account guid with account primary key.
     
     
    Thank you,
