Delete a contact

Introduction

If a contact is no longer useful to your database, you can delete it directly from the Contacts.

Artshell allows you to delete a single record or multiple Contacts at the same time, simplifying database management when you need to remove outdated information.

In this guide, you'll learn how to remove one or more Contacts and what to check before confirming the operation.

Before You Begin

Before deleting a contact, make sure you've selected the correct record and that you no longer need the associated information.

Please note: Deleting a contact is permanent and cannot be undone. Artshell requires additional confirmation to reduce the risk of accidental deletions.

Delete a single contact

To delete a contact:

Go to the section at Contacts.
Select the contact you want to delete.
Click the icon .
Select Delete.
A confirmation dialog box will appear. If you want to proceed, click Delete again; otherwise, click Cancel if you selected the wrong contact.

Delete more Contacts

If you need to delete multiple Contacts at the same time:

Go to the section Contacts.
Click " Select."
Select the " Contacts " you want to delete.
Click the icon from the menu Manage .
Click the last option, " Delete."
Confirm the action by clicking Delete in the confirmation dialog box.

Here is a brief demonstration:

What Happens to the Associated Data

Deleting will permanently remove the contact record from your address book.

Before proceeding, verify that the contact is no longer needed for your database operations.

Note: If you delete an email address that has already been used to send newsletters or communications via Artshell, the analytics for campaigns that have already been sent will still be available. However, clicking on that email address in the analytics will no longer open the corresponding contact record , because the address will no longer be in the database.

Conclusions

Deleting un Contacts s that are no longer needed allows you to keep your database organized and up to date over time.
