How to Delete an Import

After you have imported a spreadsheet into VanillaSoft, you have the option to delete this import with a few simple clicks. Deleting an import can come in handy if you mapped fields improperly, or added the contacts to the wrong project, or any other reason that you may want to undo the import. You can find information on how to import contacts into your VanillaSoft database in our How to Import Contacts article.

Completing the steps above will delete the desired spreadsheet. You will still see the import information listed, but there will no longer be an X beside it. This means that the import has been deleted, and the contacts are no longer in your database.
