BEFORE YOU IMPORT

  • Use only authorized contacts.

  • Remove duplicates and invalid rows.
  • Confirm custom fields exist before mapping.
  • Test a small file first.

BACKGROUND CAPABILITY

Wemblo can process 10,000 or more records through background jobs while users continue working. Actual processing time varies according to file size, field mapping, duplicates, validation and system load.

EXPORT

Use Export only when the signed-in user is authorized. Select the required scope, confirm the file destination and protect the downloaded file. Do not send an unencrypted customer export through ordinary email or public file sharing.
