Formatting a List

When pulling a contact list from your Student Information System or staff database, please export the following columns into a spreadsheet: 

• Contact ID
• Contact First Name
• Contact Last Name
• Contact Email
• Contact Phone
• Contact Phone Type (If you know it, include the phone type of mobile, landline, or undefined in this field).
• Contact Language - (Click here for a list of languages Possip translates).

Your spreadsheet can be formatted using any spreadsheet software, including Microsoft Excel or Google Sheets.

Formatting Contact Lists for Multiple Staff Groups

If you are preparing contact lists for multiple staff groups at once, use the "school name" column to indicate which school, organization, PTA/PTO, etc. each contact is affiliated with. 

If your data export creates a tab or workbook for each group, create a blank “All Contacts” tab and copy and paste the data from each individual tab.
