How to Export and Sync to Salesloft

This article explains how to export records from Cognism to Salesloft and how records are created during export. 

By understanding export options and integration behaviour, you can manage your data more effectively and support your outreach workflows.

Before exporting, make sure your Salesloft integration is configured correctly.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, make sure:

• Your Salesloft integration is enabled 
• Your Cognism Admin has configured integration settings and field mappings 
• You are logged in to Salesloft 

Before you export

Contacts must be revealed before they can be exported.

• In the Cognism web app, you need to spend a credit to reveal contact data before you can add the contact to a list or export it  
• In the Chrome extension, you must reveal the contact before you can take actions such as exporting  

If a contact has not been revealed, export options will not be available.

Export from search (Cognism web platform)

You can export up to 1000 records at a time from search results.

• Run your search in the Cognism platform 
• Select the records you want to export 
• Click Export > Salesloft  
• Choose whether to: 
  • Add the records to a Cadence, and/or  
  • Add them to a People List

Understand how records are created in Salesloft

When exporting to Salesloft:

• If the Person and Account do not exist, new records are created 
• Mapped fields are populated based on your integration settings 
• If records already exist, they are updated according to your configured update rules 

Export records without an email address

Whether you can export a record without an email address depends on your integration settings.

By default:

• Records without an email address will fail to export 

If permitted by your Admin:

• Records without an email address can be exported 
• You can add or edit an email address in the Cognism Chrome extension before exporting 

Access exported records in Salesloft

After export, records will appear in Salesloft based on your selected destination:

• Cadence  
• People List  

To locate exported records:

• Log in to Salesloft 
• Navigate to the relevant Cadence or People List 

Newly added records may display a New label next to the name.
