Return to Quickstart Guide

CiviCRM offers multiple ways to add contacts.

  • Quick Add: Individual
    Enter either a first name and last name or an email to quickly create a contact without filling out additional information. This is accessible from the New Individual box on every CiviCRM screen.
  • Create Contact
    Provides an interface for filling out the main contact fields (name, etc.) and location information (addresses, emails, phones, etc.).
  • Import Contacts
    This wizard based interface requires you to create a csv file and map your CiviCRM fields to the csv columns.
  • Application Programming Interface
    CiviCRM provides an API so that other applications can create contacts with whatever information is available.
