Use Contacts as a relationship list
The People area separates Members, Contacts, Invited people, and people connected to paid plans. Contacts are the broader audience you can organize and communicate with, even when they are not members of the current space.
Keep this distinction clear so a mailing list does not accidentally become space membership.
Import fields you will maintain
Upload a CSV containing email and any useful profile or segmentation columns. Sutra lets you map imported columns to contact information or properties.
Import only information you have a reason to use, such as organization, cohort, interest, or client type. Review the mapping and a sample of records before relying on a filter.
Filter before sending
Combine the available filters to identify the group relevant to a broadcast, then review the selected contacts before sending or exporting.
For example, invite contacts associated with a particular program rather than emailing the entire database. Meaningful segments make communication more useful and reduce unnecessary messages.
