Exporting Leads to Slate

  1. Log in to your secure lead portal here.
  2. Select the event for which you wish to export leads to Slate.



  3. Select 'Slate' under the 'Export Leads to' dropdown.



  4. Enter the Event GUID from the event in Slate.
    Info
    The Slate Event GUID (Globally Unique Identifier) is located in the event URL. You can copy GUID selection from the URL.

    For example: egf4d9fb-686a-7366-9351-f4fe7d68c9e1

    If you do not provide a Slate Event GUID, the first column of the export file “InternalEventID” will be blank. While not required, providing the Slate Event GUID will assist if you are creating an automation in Slate to process the file.
