1. Feature Overview

LeadSquared gives you full control over your lead data by allowing you to export leads directly from the Manage Leads and Smart Views pages. Exported data is delivered to your registered email address in CSV format, making it easy to analyze, back up, or share lead information outside the platform.

You can choose to export:

• All lead fields available in your account, or
• Only selected lead fields, based on your requirements.

Lead export supports both system and custom lead fields, while maintaining safeguards to protect your data and ensure secure file handling.

2. Prerequisites

You won’t be able to export leads if your administrator has restricted export access through permission templates. If you don’t see the export option, contact your administrator.

3. How It Works

• Lead exports are processed in the background.
• When you submit an export request, LeadSquared compiles the selected lead data into a CSV file.
• The exported file is sent to your registered email address.
• You can export:
  • All lead fields or selected lead fields
  • Leads from the Manage Leads page, Smart Views, or Static Lists
  • Standard and custom lead fields
• You can track the status of your export request from Settings>Profile>Request History.

4. Export Your Leads from Manage Leads Page

1. From your dashboard, go to Lead Management>Leads.
2. Hover over the Actions icon on the top right corner of the page and select Export Leads.
3. On the Export Leads pop-up, choose whether you want to export All fields or Selected Fields.
   • If you’ve chosen All fields, all the lead fields across all pages will be exported into the CSV file.
   • If you’ve chosen Selected Fields, only the lead fields you select will be exported into the CSV file –
     1. On the popup, click the relevant fields under Available Fields.
     2. Rearrange the chosen fields under Selected Fields.
4. Click Export when you’re done.
5. Your export request will be queued and you can check the status from the Request History page. On this acknowledgement popup, click Ok.

5. Export Your Leads from Smart Views Page

Smart Views on LeadSquared provides a centralized workspace where users can create customized tabs using filters and conditions to view only the records relevant to their work upfront. To export leads from specific Lead Smart View tabs –

1. Navigate to Lead Management>Smart Views.
2. Select the relevant Lead Smart Views, hover over the Actions icon on the top right corner of the page and click Export Leads.
3. Follow the same steps as mentioned in the previous section and your request will be processed.

6. Export a Specific List of Leads

If you want to export a selected set of leads, navigate to Lead Management>Lists and create a static list with the relevant leads you want to export. Then, export them into a CSV file. For more information on Lists and List Actions, refer to Export Lists.

7. Check the Status of Your Export Request

To view the status of your export request –

• Click on the link you received via email.
  Or
• Navigate to Settings>Profile>Request History

After the request completes, the CSV file will be sent to your registered email address in ZIP format.

8. Export Lead Fields

Lead fields store the information associated with your leads such as contact details, lead source, lead stage, custom attributes and other business-specific data. Exporting lead fields helps Admins review and document the field configuration in their account and support integrations or migration activities. To export lead fields from you account –

1. Navigate to Settings>Leads>Lead Fields.
2. Click Export. Your Lead Field data will be downloaded as a CSV file.

9. FAQs

1.Why is my Lead Import stuck in “In Queue” status?
Lead imports are processed in batches, and your request may be waiting behind others in the queue. This is normal and usually occurs during peak usage hours. The system prioritizes execution during off-business hours, so your import should typically complete overnight. If it remains in queue for more than 24 hours, reach out to support@leadsquared.com for assistance.
