How to export message data
You can export message data from your Cue workspace as a CSV file to analyse in other tools, such as Excel. This guide covers how to request an export, how to open the file in Excel, and what each message status in the export means.
Exporting your message data
Exports are requested from the Settings page and sent to you by email as a CSV file.

We'll send an email to the address linked to your Cue account with a link to download your data as a CSV file. The download link is available for 48 hours.
Opening your export in Excel
If you prefer to work in Excel, you can convert the CSV file to an Excel file format. One way to do this is to use the Text to Columns feature in Excel.

Each message in your export has a status that shows what happened to it.
- Delivered: The message has been delivered but not yet read.
- Read: The recipient has read the message.
- Rejected: The message could not be sent.
- Inbound: A message sent to you by a contact.
