What information should my file contain for email validation?

For Intelligent Verification to work effectively on your list, the file should be in CSV (Comma-Separated Values) format. CSV files are widely accepted and can be produced using various programs like Microsoft Excel, Google Sheets, and many database systems.

How to Structure Your CSV File:

Email Column: A dedicated column for email addresses is essential.

Position this column first in your CSV file. Make sure it only has the email addresses you want to verify. Don't add other data, such as names or IDs, in this column. Header: It's advisable (though not obligatory) to label the email column's first row as "Emails" or something similar. This adds clarity for future reference.

Additional Columns: If your list has other data like names, company info, or notes, you can add them in the following columns. Ensure email addresses stay in the first column, distinctly separate from other information.

Best Practices:

Consistency: Keep a uniform format for all email addresses. For example, don't mix lowercase and uppercase unless there's a specific reason.

Clean Up: Before uploading, check your list for any duplicates or clearly wrong entries. This can enhance validation speed and precision.

Backup: Always have a backup of your initial list. During verification, entries might get categorized based on validation results. Retaining an original copy means you can revert if needed.
