Import Whitelists from a CSV File

This guide is designed to help you import Whitelists into GuardREC® Compliance from a CSV file.

This functionality can be particularly useful when you have a large number of contacts to add to your whitelists, allowing you to avoid manual data entry.

Prepare Your CSV File

  • Phone numbers must be prefixed with an international calling code (e.g., +44 for UK). If not, the system-defined default will be prepended.

  • Please make certain to avoid including duplicate phone numbers when preparing your CSV file for import. GuardREC® Compliance system cannot process files with duplicate numbers or numbers already added to your whitelist.

  1. Download the Whitelist Template.

  2. Enter the contact’s phone number in Column A. (Ensure cells in Column A are formated as ‘Text’).

  3. Enter the contact’s name and relation in Column B.

  5. When done, Save the Excel sheet in CSV UTF-8 format.
