Importing Tips and Requirements

This article provides Tips and requirements needed to Import a data file.

File Requirements

  • Comma Separated Value, *.csv, (preferred format) or Microsoft Excel, *.xls, *xlsx, format
  • Each phone number must be contained within one cell (i.e., 5555555555 not the area code in one cell and the rest of the number in another cell)
  • All phone numbers must be in the same format either 5555555555 or (555) 555-5555
  • Special characters in the data may cause problems (remove special characters where possible)
  • File data should be left-justified in the cells
  • File size for imports is limited to less than 5 MB (split the file if necessary)

Import Tips 

  • Segment your data files by List, Group, Source and assigned Mojo user (manager) where possible
  • Review your file fields to see if you need to add any additional miscellaneous fields
  • Use a file header row with exact Mojo field names for easier mapping
  • Import your data during non-working hours to allow for extra time for large files and to avoid confusion with users (for multiple user accounts)
  • Give yourself some cushion for error; for example, don’t try to import your data the day before user training
