Mass update Opportunity Contact Roles with Data Loader

Julkaisupäivä: Apr 2, 2026
Kuvaus

You can use the Data Loader to mass update Opportunity Contact Roles. When managing Opportunity Contact Roles in bulk — for example, updating the Role field or IsPrimary designation for hundreds of contacts across multiple opportunities — the Data Loader's Update operation provides an efficient alternative to manual record-by-record editing.

Ratkaisu
 

Prepare a CSV file with the required columns

 

  • Contact Role ID - In order to get the Contact Role IDs of all the existing Opportunity Contact Roles, export should be done first using Data Loader.

  • ContactId - The ID of the Contact(s) to be updated.

  • Role - The Role name to be assigned or updated. To find the Role name, navigate to Setup and enter Contact Roles on Opportunities into the Quick Find box.

  • IsPrimary - Specify whether the Contact being assigned or updated is designated as the primary Contact for the Opportunity. Enter TRUE for the primary Contact and FALSE for all other Contacts.


After the CSV file is created, proceed with the update.
