CRM Import

In the campaign settings, you can select the CRM lists that you would like to import into this campaign. RevvedUp will import all existing contacts from that list and continue to import new additions to that list.

Important: Contacts imported from CRM automatically sync back after any processing. No manual push required. For complete understanding of sync behavior, see CRM Sync.
