The contact details in the CSV file should be set in the following format for the import to be successful:

You will need to replace Name, Email, Address, Phone, Notes, and Group with the display name, e-mail address, phone number, notes, and group of the specific contact. The values must be separated with the semicolon symbol (;), and the details of each contact should be entered on a separate line (row).

Note: You can only import contacts to groups that already exist, so make sure you add the necessary groups in advance.
