Hey lemlister!
Struggling with CSV imports and encountering errors or missing LinkedIn URLs in your sequences? We’ve got you covered!
Assign Column Names Correctly
When importing a CSV, you'll need to assign each column to either a default lemlist custom variable or a custom variable tag during the second step.
Default lemlist custom varibales:
{{email}}
{{firstName}}
{{lastName}}
{{picture}}
{{phone}}
{{linkedinUrl}}
{{companyName}}
{{icebreaker}}
If your CSV contains multiple email or LinkedIn profile columns, make sure to assign the column you want lemlist to use as a default type (e.g., {{email}} or {{linkedinUrl}}) so it’s recognized correctly.
What About Other Columns?
Columns not assigned to a default type will automatically become custom variables, named after their column headers.
Example:
If your CSV has a column named Job Link, the corresponding custom variable will be {{Job Link}}.
