    Why exporting Smartlead data matters

    Whether you’re a data-savvy marketer, a sales ops lead, or just backing up lists, a clean CSV lets you analyze performance, share slices with stakeholders, and archive results for compliance.

    It may feel like a boring admin task, but getting a handle on your raw data is the first step to optimizing outreach.

    How to export a CSV from Smartlead (Lead list view)

    • Open your campaign – Log in to Smartlead and open the specific Campaign you want to export.
    • Go to “Lead list” – Inside the campaign, select Lead list to view prospects.
    • (Optional) Apply filters – Narrow the export to exactly what you need, such as Email Status (e.g., In progress, Completed, Not contacted yet) or Lead Category (your categories from the master inbox).
    • Download as CSV – Click Download as CSV to generate your file.
    You now have a clean, workable spreadsheet for analysis.

    Bonus: export from Campaign → Inbox for deeper insights

    If you want to analyze engagement by message step or status:

    • Email Sequence Step – e.g., “Step 1,” “Step 3”
    • Email Status – e.g., Opened, Clicked, Replied, Bounced
    From Campaign → Inbox, apply filters, then Download as CSV. This helps you see which steps and messages drive engagement (and isolate bounces quickly).
