Contacts

Contacts is where every customer record lives. It gives you a single view of users across WhatsApp, Instagram, Web Chat, and other connected channels — with status, labels, activity, and the actions you can take. Use Contacts when you need a structured database rather than scattered conversation threads.

Key Metrics

  • Total Contacts — All contacts stored in the system
  • Active Contacts — Contacts available for messaging
  • Blocked Contacts — Contacts restricted from receiving messages
These metrics provide a quick snapshot of your contact base.

What You Can Do

  • View all contacts in one place
  • Add new contacts manually
  • Search contacts by name or phone
  • Manage contact status
  • Export or import contact data

Contact Table

The main table displays detailed information for each contact.

Fields

  • Contact — Name and phone number
  • Labels — Tags used for segmentation
  • Source — Channel or origin of contact
  • Assigned To — Responsible team member
  • Status — Active or unsubscribed
  • Created At — When the contact was added

Why Use Contacts

Instead of managing users inside conversations:
  • Maintain a structured contact database
  • Segment users effectively
  • Assign ownership clearly
  • Enable better targeting for campaigns

  1. Add or import contacts
  2. Assign labels for segmentation
  3. Assign contacts to team members
  4. Use filters to manage groups
  5. Use contacts in campaigns or automations

Best Practices

  • Keep contact data clean and updated
  • Use labels consistently
  • Avoid duplicate contacts
  • Regularly review inactive or unsubscribed users
  • Use import/export for bulk updates

How Contacts connect to other features

  • Inbox — conversations are the chat thread for a contact; Notes add human context to that thread.
  • Event Studio — every meaningful action on a contact is recorded as an Event, visible in history and usable as automation triggers.
  • Pipelines — contacts move through pipeline stages to track business progress.
  • Labels and Custom Fields — structured data that automations and Contact → Pipeline can read and write.
