      Manage Custom Lists (formerly Manage Imports)

      In CONNECT, any user can add additional contacts beyond the normal contacts included from your student information system. Learn how to share and manage your custom lists.

      To see who is included from your Student Information System, see Introduction (SIS Configuration).

      Manage and share custom lists

      1. From your dashboard, choose Manage Custom Lists

      2. Review the custom lists available. You can see any custom lists you added in the past. If other people have shared custom lists with you, you can see them here too.

      New lists

      1. From Manage Custom Lists, choose New List
      2. Choose Download CSV Template
      3. Edit the file in Excel.
      4. Back on the web page, either upload the CSV file using Browse, or copy and paste the data into the "Paste from Excel" section.
        1. Avoid including columns other than Name, Email, Phone, and Language.
        2. CatapultCONNECT automatically detects the columns. Additional columns of data can cause CatapultCONNECT to misidentify the columns.
        3. Technical note: CatapultCONNECT accepts both tab-separated and comma-separated columns.
      5. Fill in a name for your new list at the top.
      6. Choose Save
