FAQs

Is this a two-way sync of contacts between Google and Keap?
No.  It is only a one-way, one-time import of contacts from Google into Keap.

How is the Google Contacts list sorted?
The Google Contacts list is sorted with the most recently updated at the top. 

Does this check for duplicate contacts?
Yes. You will not be able to import contacts that already exist within your application. Keap will check for duplicates by comparing the Google contact's email address with the email1 and work email fields.

I wasn't able to import my contacts. What should I do?
Restart your import by clicking Import contacts button. When given a choice of Google accounts, select Use another account and re-enter your account credentials.

Keap was unable to find any contacts in my Google Account, but they are on my phone. What should I do?
Check your phone to see where your contacts are saved. Your contacts may be saved to your SIM card or a different Google Account. You can also log in to Google Contacts online to see what contacts are currently stored in your Google Account.
