Importing and exporting your contacts list allows you to easily manage your contacts and easily transfer them to other Yealink phones.
​
​Importing/exporting contacts can only be done in the web interface.
​
Access the web user interface as explained here. When prompted, enter the username and password. The default values are:

  • Username: user

  • Password: user

Import a CSV file of your contacts to a Yealink phone

1. Click on Directory > Local Directory.
2. Click Browse to locate your contact list file. The file format must be .csv.
3. Tick the Show Title checkbox if you want the title/labels of the columns to be included. This will prevent importing the title of the contact located in the first line of the CSV file.
4. Click Import CSV.
5. Select the appropriate option for Delete Old Contacts. If you select On, all existing contacts will be deleted while the contact list is being imported.
6. (Optional.) Select the contact information you want to import into the local directory from the Index drop-down options.
7. Click Import.
​

Export your contacts list as a CSV file
