Account Duplication Alert
If you see a yellow flag alert, this is letting you know that we found a duplicate Account/Company in your Salesforce instance for this contact.
To resolve, click on any yellow flag to review Seamless.AI duplicate checking. You will be given the option to either add a new Account or append to an existing Account. Once you make a selection, Seamless.AI will update this record and should import successfully.
Additional errors based on your CRM
In general, a red flag indicates you have an error preventing your contact from importing.
Clicking the red flag should provide you with additional insight into what is causing that error. Typically it indicates that you need to reconnect your CRM account or you have a rule or validation rule in your CRM account that is conflicting with the import.
Since this is an error outside of Seamless.AI you can connect with your CRM admin for more information on that error and how to resolve it.
