Import customer data

If you installed our app from one of the partner point of sale platforms (Clover, GoDaddy Poynt, Shopify, Square, Vend), you do not need to do anything. When you install the application, Colligso automatically pulls your customer data into your account. After the installation, as you add customers on these platforms, Colligso dynamically retrieves these and adds them to your account. If you have auto opt-in enabled, Colligso would also send them a message asking to follow your business.

If your customer data resides on platforms other than the above mentioned platforms, Colligso can be easily integrated. Please check out our Integrations page to find if the Colligso app you are using is integrated to automatically source customer data from the app where you are collecting the data. These integrations do not require any coding on your part and they could be set up in minutes. Integrations are available via platforms like Zapier or Integromat which have good free plans.

Most of those integrations enable you to import the customer data as it is made available by other apps. For example, once a new submission takes place in Google Forms, using an integration between Google Forms and your Colligso app, the data collected by the Google Forms is made available to your Colligso account. 

Importing data from CSV or Spreadsheet

If you have captured customer data in a spreadsheet or a csv file, there are 2 approaches to import them in Colligso:

Do it yourself:

Method 1

• Login to your account.
• Select Site from dropdown (top right) where you want to upload customer data.
• Select Menu->Customers
• Click on Import button and follow through the steps. Provide CSV file as described below. Template is provided.
• If import is successful, you would be able to see customer data once you re-login.

Method 2

• Colligso apps are available on integration platforms like Integromat and Zapier. You can easily create an integration between your app where customer data is kept and a Colligso app on those platforms. Both these platforms offer free plans and no coding is required.
• Follow instructions to integrate on Integromat.
• Follow instructions to integrate on Zapier.

Ask Team Colligso: Open a ticket using Contact Us and attach your customer file and request import of that data into your account.

CSV file:

We expect at least the following fields in the file. If you have multiple sites on your Colligso account, let us know which site the customer data belongs to.

Id, LastName, FirstName, Email, Mobile, Add1, Add2, City, State, Pcode, Country, CampaignId

• Id should be unique for each row.
• Email is required for SpotIn and WalletIn only.
• Mobile* is required for TextIn. Do not provide Email if you provide Mobile. 
• Address elements and campaignid are optional
• Provide CampaignId if you plan to target this segment of customers differently using a campaign, else do not provide.

 Use this template CSV file to get started.

* Mobile number should be in E.164 format such as starting with +1 for the US and Canada, +44 for the UK, +55 for Brazil, +52 for Mexico, etc.
