Excel or CSV contacts to HubSpot
Prepare a contact list for HubSpot import: valid emails, phone numbers in international format, allowed lifecycle stages, no duplicate emails.
The short answer
HubSpot rejects or mis-imports rows with invalid emails, duplicate emails, phone numbers in local format and values that don't match a property's allowed options (like Lifecycle stage). Clean those columns and name them after HubSpot properties (First name, Last name, Email, Phone number, Company name) before importing.
How to do it with Rowvio
- 01Drop the Excel or CSV list into Rowvio and choose HubSpot → Contacts.
- 02Rowvio maps columns to HubSpot properties and splits full names into first and last names.
- 03Emails are lower-cased and checked, phones converted to +country format, names tidied, duplicate emails removed.
- 04Fix anything the checklist flags, then download.
- 05In HubSpot: Contacts → Import → File from computer.
