Export Talent from Pool

Pool users can export everyone on the Talent page, an audience or a campaign to a file, with no row limit.

Pool had no way to take a list out of Fountain, so teams rebuilt their lists by hand or asked Fountain to pull the data for them.

What's new

• Export from where you are — an Export button on the Talent page, on each audience and on each campaign exports everyone in that list.

• No size limit — every export runs in the background, and very large exports arrive as a ZIP of CSV files.

• Know who you can contact — each file shows whether each person can be reached by email and by SMS. Talent who opted out, are marked do not contact, or match your Pool exclusion rules are left out, and the export window says how many were left out and why.

• What's in the file — the standard talent columns with names spelled out, plus custom attributes and email and SMS reachability. Protected attributes and Match Score are not included.

• An email when it's ready — Pool emails the person who started the export with a link to the Exports page.

• A new Exports page — Pool settings list every export with its list, requester, rows, downloads and status, and show progress while an export prepares. Download a file again for 30 days, cancel an export that is queued or preparing, or delete a file you no longer need. Pool admins see every export and can download their own.

• A new permission — Can export talent is on for the Administrator role by default and can be added to any custom role. Every export is recorded.

Why it matters

Pool lists can go straight into spreadsheets, reports and conversations with hiring managers, without rebuilding them or waiting on a data request. Admins stay in control: exporting is a permission, every export is recorded, and files expire.

What to expect

Administrators can export right away; everyone else needs an admin to add Can export talent to their role. Files reflect your data at the moment of export, so export again for a fresh list. Files are deleted after 30 days, while the record of each export stays. A very large export can take a couple of hours, and you can leave the page while it runs.
