Importing Contacts

Desktop Only


You can easily import contacts into homesync using an excel file. Homesync can import contacts from .CSV files. To learn how to export an excel document to .CSV, check out this link: How to export CSV files from Excel (

Your exported CSV file should have all your contact data spread across rows with each column being a specific field. An example is shown below.

  1. Once you have your .CSV file you can upload it to homesync
  2. Click ‘Contacts’ in your navigation bar
  3. Click ‘Upload Contacts’ on the top right of your screen.
  4. Either drag and drop a csv file or click the box that says “Click here or Drag n’ Drop CSV file with your contacts”
  5. Your contacts will be uploaded.

Now that your contacts have been uploaded, you will need to connect your contact information to the fields available on homesync. The next screen will show several boxes for each column that was in your CSV file. Use the dropdown menu to designate which field each column should be associated with.


Many contact spreadsheets use the 1st row as a header for the columns. You can ignore the first row when you import by checking the “Would you like to skip the first row?” checkbox above your fields.


Once you have chosen your fields, click “Save Import” on the top right side of the screen to import your contacts to your homesync contact list.
