Exporting Salsa for CiviCRM¶

When logged in as a Manager, "Query/Export" will give you a full export of contact data. There's a "Select My Entire List" button. There's also an "include my deleted supporters" checkbox, which you may want to check (but probably not). This will NOT get you groups/tags.

To get groups/tags/chapters¶

You need to get to custom reports. If you have the Reports tab, great; if not, you can get there by clicking "Supporter Management" tab, then "Built-in Reports", then "Clone and Edit" a report, then select "List Custom Groups". Or go straight here: https://hq-org.salsalabs.com/dia/hq/reports/list.jsp?table=report

Important: When selecting foreign keys (e.g. "Supporter KEY") from the Columns tab, be sure to give a custom label. This will cause the key to display correctly, instead of giving a link to the supporter's record.

Groups

• Create a new report.
• Select the type of report you would like to create: Standard report
• Use "Advanced Object Chooser".
• Report "Supporter Groups", then "Groups". Press "Save".
• Select the "Columns" tab and select your columns. I like just "Supporter Key" and "Group Name".
• In Conditions, "Group Name" should be "Not Empty".
• Save, Run the report.
• Click the "Export" link.

Tags

• Create a new report.
• Select the type of report you would like to create: Standard report
• Use "Advanced Object Chooser".
• Report on "Tags", then "Tags Data", then "Database Table". Press "Save".
• Select the "Columns" tab and select your columns. I like just "Tag" and "Table Key".
  • "Table Key" is the Supporter Key. It's similar to "entity_id" in CiviCRM.
• In "Conditions", "Table Name" should equal "supporter".
• Add another condition: "Tag.Tag" is "Not Empty".
• Save, Run the report.
• Click the "Export" link.

Chapters

• Select the type of report you would like to create: Standard report

• Select the "Columns" tab and select your columns. I like just "Supporter KEY" and "Chapter.Name".
• In Conditions, "Chapter.Name" should be "Not Empty".
• Save, Run the report.
• Click the "Export" link.
