FAQ and Troubleshooting

How can I export more than 2500 contacts?

The Contacts Module can load Contacts up to 2500 rows of pagination, this limit allows the platform to perform searches faster and more consistently.

To export more than 2500 contacts from the Contacts Module, you can use filters to narrow your search to return a specific list of contacts that is within the 2500 pagination range.

Another way is to upgrade to an Enterprise plan which will allow you to use the Data Export Contacts feature. Learn more about Data Export here.
