Organize contacts into lists
The easiest way to organize contacts is by grouping them into lists or segments. You can also pin a list or segment for quick access.
It is strictly prohibited to use contact lists that have been purchased or obtained from third parties.
Textmagic offers these default lists:
- Unsubscribed ā a list where contacts are moved automatically if they have unsubscribed from your communication.
- Blocked – a list where you can add contacts to block all incoming and outgoing texts with the number.
Create a new list
- Navigate to Contacts -> Lists -> Click on theĀ New list.
- Enter a list name.
- Make the list private orĀ share it with your sub-accounts (legacy sub-accouts flow). This option can be changed at any time.
- Click Save.
- You can import multiple contacts to your list or add them one-by-one. Learn how to Import contacts from a .CSV or Excel file orĀ add contacts one-by-one.
