Send Bulk Referrals via Data Loader

Send bulk referrals using Data Loader to send one or many referrals to many different firms at once. You might have a long list of referrals to send to partner firms on Litify. Follow this guide to create a .csv file containing the fields and field values you want to load, insert the .csv, then determine field mapping.

1. Create a .csv file containing all fields and field values you want to map to the new referral records. Each referral record you add must contain the following required fields:
   • Sync Status: set to New
   • Email
   • Phone
   • Client First Name
   • Client Last Name
   • Originating Firm: Your firm
   • Handling Firm: Firm you are sending referrals to.
   • Case State: State the case resides in
   • Record Type: set to Outgoing Referral
2. Open Data Loader.

4. Choose the Insert operation and Referral object.
5. Select Next.
6. Select the CSV file you created in step 1.
7. Select Next.
