If you have an excel file of contacts that you would like to delete from your address book you can simply follow the instructions in this article here.
If you would like to export a group from your existing contacts, and then use this file to remove these, first follow the instructions for ‘Exporting Contacts’.
Once you have the file of contacts that you want to delete, head to the '+Add contacts' part in the Contacts menu:
Drag & drop or choose the file of contacts that you wish to remove.
Select the most suited delimiter.
Select 'remove contacts'.
Now you can choose between:
Don't add contacts to a group: This will remove them completely from your MessageBird account.
Group name is a column in the file: If the group that you would like to remove these contacts from is indicated in the file, you can select this option.
Select Group: Choose from which of your existing groups you would like to remove these contacts.
Click 'next' and configure the columns. Confirm by clicking 'next' again.
The chosen contacts will be deleted from your contacts entirely or the chosen group.
