Contact
One customer, one complete record
Contacts from chats are saved automatically, and the same customer on WhatsApp, Telegram, and Conex is merged into one contact. Add labels and custom fields, build segments, merge duplicates, then import or export via CSV.

How it works
Step by step in the dashboard
Menu names match business.conex.chat (in Indonesian).
- 1
Import existing contacts
In Kontak (Contacts), open the import wizard: choose a CSV file, map the columns (name, phone number, email, Instagram, Telegram, label, notes, or custom fields), review the data, and you're done.
- 2
Decide how to handle duplicates
Rows that match an existing contact can be merged, filling in empty fields without overwriting existing data, or skipped.
- 3
Add a label & promo consent
Add one label to all imported contacts and choose their promo consent status. The default is "Belum izin" (Not yet opted in).
- 4
Clean up duplicate contacts
Review pairs flagged as similar because of the same phone number, email, name, or account, then merge them or mark them as not duplicates.
- 5
Add custom fields
Create text, number, date, or choice fields, such as vehicle type, city, or date of birth.
- 6
Build smart segments
Combine conditions like label, city, total spend, number of transactions, time since last purchase, birthday, or owning staff member, then choose whether all conditions or any one of them must be met.
Key settings
- Segment conditions
- Has or doesn't have a label, chat channel, city, promo consent, total spend, number of transactions, no purchase for, active in chat within, new contact within, birthday, contact source, and owning staff member.
- Matching method
- All conditions must be met, or just one of them.
- Custom fields
- Text, number, date, or choice types, with at least two options.
- Promo consent per contact
- Opted in, not yet opted in, or unsubscribed. This status decides whether a contact can receive broadcasts.
- List columns
- Choose which columns to show, such as label, promo consent, last chat, owner, number of transactions, and total spend.
Limits & rules

- CSV files with 1–5,000 rows and up to 5 MB per import. Excel files need to be saved as CSV first.

- Up to 100 labels, 40 custom fields, and 60 segments per business.
- Permissions
- Import and export are only for roles with permission, and every export is recorded.
- Privacy

Contacts & segments FAQ
How many contacts can I store?
The Free plan has a limited number of contacts, and Pro allows more. You'll see the numbers in the Paket & Kuota (Plans & Quotas) menu.
Who can export contacts?
Only roles with permission, and every export is recorded.
How are duplicate contacts detected?
By the same phone number, email, or channel account, plus the same or similar name. You decide whether to merge them or mark them as not duplicates.
Can I import from Excel?
Save your Excel or Google Sheets file as a CSV, then upload the CSV file in the import wizard.
What happens when two contacts are merged?
The contact you keep absorbs the other contact's channel identities, conversations, labels, custom fields, phone numbers, emails, and notes.
Can imported contacts receive broadcasts right away?
Only if you choose "Sudah setuju" (Already opted in) during import. Choose it only if everyone in the file has actually agreed to receive promos.
What's a smart segment?
A segment whose members are recalculated from its conditions every time it's used, so new contacts that match are included automatically.
