The Scenario
Your growth team ran an enrichment pass on 200 Folk contacts last week — pulled LinkedIn job titles, verified company names, added direct phone numbers — and the cleaned data is now sitting in an Excel workbook. Column A has the Folk contact ID, column B has the new job title, column C has the corrected company name, column D has the phone number.
None of it is in Folk yet.
The bad version:
- Open Folk, search for the first contact ID, navigate to their profile, click "Edit," update the title field, update the company field, add the phone number, save. Next contact.
- Realize around contact 30 that you've been copy-pasting the title from column C and the company from column B — reversed — and now you need to figure out which records are wrong.
- Accept that fixing 200 records individually is going to consume most of tomorrow, which means the enriched data won't actually be in Folk in time for the SDR team's prospecting push on Thursday.
The data is clean. Getting it from the workbook into Folk shouldn't be a separate project.
The Easy Way: One Prompt in SheetXAI
SheetXAI is an AI agent inside your Excel workbook. It reads the workbook and talks to Folk through its built-in integration. For bulk updates, you describe which Folk field maps to which column, and SheetXAI handles the API calls across all 200 rows.
Update each Folk contact whose ID is in column A of this workbook — set the job title from column B, the company from column C, and the phone number from column D — skip any row where column A is blank and give me a count of contacts updated
What You Get
- Each Folk contact updated with the enriched values from the correct columns.
- Job title, company, and phone written to the right Folk fields — not mismatched.
- Blank rows skipped cleanly, with a count of updates applied and rows bypassed.
- No manual navigation through 200 contact profiles.
What If the Data Is Not Quite Ready
Some contact IDs in column A no longer exist in Folk
Contacts may have been merged or deleted since the enrichment run.
Update each Folk contact whose ID is in column A — set title from column B, company from column C, phone from column D — skip rows where column A is blank, flag any ID that returns a "not found" error in a new column E, and give me a count of successful updates and failed lookups
Phone numbers in column D have inconsistent formatting
Some are +1 555-000-0001, some are 5550000001, some are blank.
Normalize column D in this workbook to E.164 format (e.g. +15550000001), then update each Folk contact whose ID is in column A — set title from column B, company from column C, and normalized phone from column D — skip rows where column D can't be formatted or is blank
You want to update only records where the title has actually changed
You don't want to overwrite Folk data for contacts where the title is already correct.
For each row in this workbook, fetch the current job title from the Folk contact whose ID is in column A — if it differs from column B, update it; if it matches, skip that field — always write company from column C and phone from column D if those columns are not blank
The full validation and bulk update in one shot
In this workbook: normalize column D to E.164 format where possible, then for each row where column A is not blank, update the matching Folk contact — set title from column B, company from column C, normalized phone from column D — flag any ID that's not found in a new "Status" column, and give me a summary of updated records, skipped rows, and not-found IDs
The enrichment data is in Folk before Thursday's prospecting push. One prompt instead of an afternoon.
