How do I export candidate data?

Select candidates on the dashboard, open the More dropdown, and choose Export. Supports CSV and JSON. Export all or a selected subset.

Updated in the last hour

For employers moving candidate data out of Truffle for reporting, syncing with an ATS or CRM, or archiving.


​

To export candidate data, open the candidate list for a position, select the candidates you want (or leave unselected to export everyone), open the More dropdown above the table, and click Export. Pick CSV for spreadsheets or JSON for programmatic use.


​

How to export

Exports always start from the candidate dashboard. You can export everyone on a position or a specific subset.


​

  1. In the sidebar, open Positions and click the position whose candidates you want to export.

  2. (Optional) Select a subset. Click the checkbox next to any candidate name. The multi-select bar appears at the bottom; everyone you tick is included in the export.

  3. Click the More dropdown above the table.

  4. Click Export.

  5. Pick CSV or JSON and confirm.


​

Truffle builds the file and downloads it to your browser. Large exports can take a few seconds.


​

What's in the export

The export captures candidate list metadata, not the full profile detail.


​

  • Candidate fields. Name, email, application date, status, match percentage.

  • Qualification results. Pass/fail for each qualification question on the position.

  • Team review state. Review counts and aggregate recommendation.

  • Assessment signals. High-level alignment summary for any enabled assessment (Personality, Work Scenarios, Environment Fit).

  • Not included. Full video transcripts, AI summaries, notes. Use the candidate profile (or a share link) for the full picture.


​

The status column uses the same stage-aware labels that show in the UI, so For Review, Advance, On Hold, and Rejected all round-trip cleanly into spreadsheets.


​

CSV vs JSON

  • CSV. Pick this for Google Sheets, Excel, or pasting into an ATS. Status labels match the UI exactly.

  • JSON. Pick this for feeding into your own scripts, a data warehouse, or internal dashboards. Field names are stable across exports.


​

When to use the API instead

One-off exports are fastest through the UI. For scheduled or recurring pulls, use the Truffle API. It gives you structured JSON and doesn't require manual selection. See How do I use the Truffle API?.
