Resolution

There is a known issue when trying to upload in bulk or create contacts using a user that does not have a license applied. The workaround for this issue is as follows:

  1. Add a spare user license to the admin user being used to create the contacts.
  2. Create the contacts either individually or in bulk.
  3. Remove the license if no longer required.
