Contact Importing
Integrate With Dozens Of Address Book Providers At Once
There isn’t a social network or CRM on the planet that doesn’t need to let their new users upload their address books. It’s critical to the onboarding process to make it simple for users to find friends and populate their account with people they know.
Integrating with address book providers is a total nightmare. So don’t bother with it. Just do a single integration with the CloudSponge Contact Picker or our RESTful Contacts API and we’ll handle all the tedium for you. You could be done with it in a few hours instead of a few months.

Integrations with address book providers break all the time. Just look at our Service Status and Changelog pages to see how much work is to keep everything working all the time.
When you use CloudSponge for your address book provider integrations, we’ll handle the maintenance so you can focus on your priorities.
Easy As Pie
Every address book provider is different, that’s why each of them needs its own special StackOverflow tags and developer forums. OAuth, CSV parsing, web scraping, 2FA and even .zip file uploads (lookin’ at you LinkedIn) can create a big plate of spaghetti code if you’re not careful.
Use our Webhooks and JavaScript callbacks to simplify your integration down to one single module that always works the same way for every provider.
Not All Address Books Are Created Equal
You’ve got better things to do than hunt through API docs and outdated libraries to figure out which fields are supported by each address book provider. Wouldn’t it be nice if all that work was done for you?
We provide entire contact records including phone numbers, job titles, company names, email addresses (and whatever else is stored in your users’ address books) and we do it in a simple, normalized payload.
