Editing a contact or company

Last updated: October 12, 2026

You can correct or complete a contact's details yourself, straight from Topo. Your changes show everywhere that person appears, and they sync to your CRM.

Edit a contact

  1. Open the contact's details from the Lists, Contacts or Accounts page.

  2. Click the pen icon next to their name.

  3. In the Overview tab, update the fields you need under Edit contact.

  4. Press Enter or click Save. Press Esc or click Cancel to leave without saving.

What you can edit

  • First name and last name

  • Job title

  • Email

  • Phone, with a country code picker

  • LinkedIn

  • City, state and country

Topo checks what you type. An email, phone number or LinkedIn URL that isn't valid is refused, so you can fix it before saving.

If Topo couldn't find a phone number for someone, you can add it here yourself.

Where your edits show up

Everywhere the person appears in Topo: task labels, reply drafts and icebreakers. Edited fields also sync to your CRM.

The contact owner is the exception. Changing it in Topo isn't pushed to your CRM, because your CRM works out its own contact owner field.

Field history

Each field keeps a history of its past values. Open it to see what changed, and restore an earlier value if you need to.

Good to know

  • You edit one contact at a time. There's no bulk edit.

  • Editing isn't available from the Chrome extension.

Edit a company

Open the company's details and click the pen icon next to its name. In the Overview tab, under Edit account, you can change its name, industry, number of employees, city, state, country, website, domain and LinkedIn page. Press Enter to save, Esc to cancel.
