- If your provider isn't listed, or you encounter an error, you can create and upload a CSV spreasheet.
Important: We automatically select all contacts on the displayed list to be invited. If you don't want to send your invitations to everyone on the list, be sure to uncheck the Select All box and individually check the boxes next to contacts you want to invite.
