Need to manage a lot of contacts at once? This article will help you navigate the bulk actions on your Contact Lists page.
If you want to take one action for a large number of your contact lists, our new bulk actions will help you do it quickly and easily. Let’s check out some of the options:
Merge Lists
1. Navigate to Contacts, then Contact Lists.
2. Check the boxes of the lists you want to merge.
3. Click on Merge near the top of the page.
4. Type the name of your new merged list into the List name box in the pop-up.
5. Choose whether to delete the original contact lists you selected to merge. If you don’t want to keep the original lists, check the box next to Delete original lists. If you would like to keep those source lists, leave the box unchecked.
6. Click the blue Merge lists button at the bottom of the pop-up. You can find your new merged contact list in the same column as the rest of your contact lists.
Export
1. After navigating to Contacts on the left side of your MessageMedia account, then Contact Lists, select the lists you’d like to export by checking the box to the left of each list.
2. Select the Export contacts button above your lists.
3. The contacts in the lists you selected will be exported into a single CSV.
Delete Lists
-
Select the lists you want to delete by checking the boxes at the far left of each one. Click Delete above the list box.

Within the pop-up, review the lists you’ve selected. You can see details about each list in the dropdown by clicking on the black “down” arrow.

Sort Lists
Lists can be sorted by name and by the date they were created.

You can select all your lists at once by checking the box at the far left of the bar at the top of your lists.
