Overview

This node operation allows exporting lead data from the Close CRM system in bulk. It supports exporting leads in different granularities such as one row per lead, one row per contact, or one row per opportunity. The export can be generated in CSV or JSON format. Users can apply advanced filtering using a JSON search query to narrow down the leads to export. Additional options include customizing date formats, selecting specific fields to include, including activities and smart fields, limiting the number of results, and receiving a notification email when the export is complete. This operation is useful for bulk data extraction, reporting, or data migration scenarios.

Use Case Examples

  1. Export all leads in CSV format with original date format and all fields included.
  2. Export contacts related to leads in JSON format including activities and smart fields.
  3. Export lead opportunities in CSV format with a custom search query to filter leads by status.
