What is one of the first steps required to set up a contact import automation?

Creating a name for the automation is indeed one of the first steps required to set up a contact import automation. This step is essential because naming the automation helps in clearly identifying its purpose and functionality within the broader context of your projects. A well-defined name ensures that users can easily recognize it among other automations, which aids in organization and management. Furthermore, providing a name at the inception stages allows for effective referencing later, especially in environments where multiple automations might be in use.

Other actions, such as uploading a final report or contacting the Qualtrics support team, are typically not preliminary steps in creating an automation and instead come later in the process or in different contexts. Setting a reminder for follow-up is also important but is more relevant to the management of tasks after the automation has been established. Thus, naming the automation remains a foundational step in establishing a clear framework for data imports and project organization.
