Prepare and upload Excel
Do not leave name empty. The platform notes that it can use the email prefix before @ when name is blank. Any email entered must be valid; EDM contacts should have a usable address. Select Upload File after preparing Excel.

Review the data and target group in the next import step before using the displayed submission control. Treat the operation as complete only after a success result, not merely after uploading a file.
Notes and troubleshooting
- The example uses demo@example.invalid. No import was committed and no declaration was accepted on the account's behalf.
