Importing and Exporting Customer Information in Batches
Go to the Menu options above and click Customer. You will see three red labels: Import, Export, and Add.

Generate and Download the Template:
Wait for the system to generate the report.
Download the Excel template once it’s ready.
Update the Template:
For new customers, fill in the name and contact details. The system will automatically create a unique ID for new entries.
Additional details can be managed later in the customer chatroom.
Importing Customer Info
Once the excel template is updated, follow these steps to import it back into the system:
Navigate to the "Customer" menu.
Click "Import".
Select "Customer Info".
Upload the completed Excel template. The system will update the customer information accordingly.
Please complete updating your customer info first, and then proceed to update the customer labels.
Managing Customer Labels in Batches
The process for managing customer labels is similar to exporting/importing customer information, with a few additional details.
Exporting Customer Label
Export the Customer Label:
In the "Customer" menu, click the "Export" button.
Select "Customer Label" and download the Excel template.
Choose the Template Type:
Customer Label: Use this template to manage customer information, assign labels, and assign users (agents) to customers.
Fill in the Template:
For new customers, enter your WhatsApp API number in the "Channel" column.
Use the following columns for label management:
Label (Read Only): Displays the labels currently assigned to the customer.
Attach Label: Add any new labels you want to assign to the customer.
Detach Label: Remove any labels you no longer want assigned to the customer.
To assign customers to a team member, input their email address in the "Assigned To" column.
Importing Customer Label
Once the excel template is updated, follow these steps to import it back into the system:
Navigate to the "Customer" menu.
Click "Import".
Select "Customer Label".
Critical Notes for Templates
When working with templates, ensure the following columns are never left empty:
Channel (with district code)
Type (WhatsApp Official API, Facebook, Instagram, WeChat, Web)
Contact (with district code)
Permissions Management
If the "Export" button is not visible, permissions may need to be enabled:
Go to Settings > Groups.
Select the relevant group.
Enable the "Customer Export" permission.
Important: Once this permission is enabled, all team members in the group will have access to export customer information. For security purposes, we recommend enabling this feature only for administrative roles.
