To import the exported CSV file you need the CSV Import extension. The better way to migrate just the Connections data from one site to another is the methods explained in my other reply to the thread you open on this topic.

The CSV Import addon is best suited for building the initial directory. If you want to go the CSV Import route, there’s two limitations. One due to export and one due to import.

The export limitation is that address/phone/email can only export one of each address/phone/email type. Meaning… An address can have any number of addresses assigned, but if two are “Home” then only one can be exported. However if one os “Home” and the other is “Work” both will export just fine.

The import limitation is that images can not be imported yet. That said, I do have a beat which does. So, if you purchase the CSV Import extension I will be more than happy to send you a copy of that beta.

Hope this helps!
