How to delete multiple contacts

On this page, you will learn how to delete some or all of your contacts, which can be useful when you need to remove outdated or unused contacts and keep your list organized.

To get started, you will need: 

• A systeme.io account
• A list of contacts

Deleting all contacts

Click on Contacts (1) in the CRM menu.

Deleting multiple contacts

Use one of the filters to group your contacts (e.g., by "tag", "date added", etc.).

Now, only the contacts with the tag Lead will appear in the list.

Click on the Select all button (7) to select the entire list. Then click on Delete (8).

Click on Confirm (9) to delete the selected contacts.

Restoring deleted contacts

To restore a deleted contact, click on Recently deleted (10) on your Contacts page.

Once in the deleted contacts bin, you’ll see a list of recently deleted contacts along with their deletion date, removal method, and the date they’ll be permanently deleted.

You can manually select the contact(s) you want to restore (11), or use the filters on the left to find them easily (12). Then, click Restore (13).

You can also track deleted contacts directly from your main dashboard without having to navigate to your contact list first.

In the sidebar, hover your mouse over a contact's email address to see their current status. If the contact has been deleted, a tooltip will appear showing:

• Contact removed: A status indicating the contact was deleted.
• Date of removal: The exact date the contact was deleted.

If you need to manage or recover the contact, simply click on the email address in the live updates feed. You will be redirected immediately to the Recently deleted page (Bin), where you can view the Removal method and the Permanent deletion date and use the Restore button if needed.
