Enhancements and Changes 

Import Contact Tags Along with Contacts 

Earlier, you were required to perform two import processes if you wanted to import a contact list and its contact tags. With the new enhancement in place, you can now import the contact tags along with the contact list - in a single import.

📋Note: The process for importing contact tags is still available and you can still use it to import contact tags separately.

Specify Contact Tags When Adding a Contact to List

In the user interface, you can now specify the tags for a contact when adding the contact to a list. The Add Tags field is introduced on the New Contact page (Contacts index page > View Contacts [of a list] > New Contact). The field is also available when editing a contact (Contacts index page > View Contacts [of a list] > Edit Contact).
