My Contacts View for Teams

A simplified way to manage contact visibility across teams.

Updated over a week ago

The My Contacts view ensures each user only sees contacts tied to their own data sources—like their mailbox, CSV imports, or CRM connections. It’s perfect for teams that want clarity, privacy, and cleaner contact management.


🚀 Why Use My Contacts?

  • Sales & BD Teams: Focus only on your pipeline—no duplicate outreach or irrelevant data.

  • Marketing Teams: Segment lists by ownership for cleaner targeting and campaigns.

  • Client Teams: Stay focused on your own relationships while collaborating on shared accounts.

  • Admins: Maintain clean data visibility, privacy, and role-based access.


🔧How It Works

  • SigParser tags each user’s data sources (mailboxes, imports, CRM syncs).

  • When My Contacts is selected, users only see contacts from those assigned sources.

  • Admins can manage which data sources are assigned to each user.


🔍 How to Use the My Contacts View

  1. Go to Contacts

  2. Open the Views dropdown

  3. Select My Contacts

You’ll now see only contacts tied to your data sources.

💡 Add a quick reference column

  • Add a Column to the Grid

  • Navigate to Overview → check My Contact > Save

  • ✅ = Contact you own

🧪 Filter by ownership

  • Use the search bar: My Contact is TRUE

  • Or go to the Filter icon → Overview → My Contact → is TRUE


🔒 How to Limit Users to “My Contacts” Only

To limit a user’s visibility to their own contacts, you'll need to adjust Role permissions in SigParser. You can either modify an existing role or create a new one with limited access.

Note: Disabling this permission restricts contact visibility but does not allow access to firmwide Interactions, Relationships, or Company data.

Option A: Update an Existing Role

  • Go to Settings → Users → Users

  • Select the user’s Role

  • Disable the Can View All Contacts permission

  • Save

✅ Now the user will only see contacts from their sources.

Option B: Create a New Role

  • Go to Settings → Users → Roles → +Add

  • Name it (e.g. My Contacts Only)

  • Disable Can View All Contacts

  • Customize other permissions

  • Save and assign the role

💡 Tip: Use the “Team Member Limited” role as a starting point.


🌐 See Where a Contact Came From

  1. Open a Contact Record

  2. Go to the History tab

  3. Under Connectors, see which source (e.g., mailbox, CSV) the contact came from

  4. View the Visibility Reason for why you can access the record

❓ Why Am I Seeing Unfamiliar Contacts?

  • You have Can View All Contacts permission

  • You’re assigned to that data source

  • You were CC’d or invited to a shared meeting


⚙️ How Admins Manage Data Sources

Admins can assign or remove data sources for users to control which contacts appear in their My Contacts view.

To assign a source:

  1. Go to Settings → Users → Users

  2. Click the user’s name

  3. Select Show Advanced Settings

  4. Under Connectors, click Add

  5. Enter the source (e.g., mailbox name)

  6. Click Done

To remove a source: click the 🗑️ icon next to the source name.


📌 Summary

The My Contacts view helps teams:

  • Stay focused on their own data

  • Simplify collaboration

  • Maintain privacy and security

  • Reduce clutter across shared platforms

Use it to streamline contact access, personalize workflows, and keep your team on track.
