The Deduplicate Job Export feature lets you export Deduplicate Job results to a .csv or .xlsx file. This way you can review or customize your reports and present them outside the Salesforce environment.

Prerequisites

Either

• Have access to Plauti Cloud‍ at https://cloud.plauti.com/, 

Or

• Have Plauti Desktop‍ installed.

Exporting Deduplicate Job results

First, prepare an export job to export the job results.

1. In your Salesforce ORG, go to the Deduplicate Job Overview‍ page.
2. Find the job that you want to export. 

After a Deduplicate Job is completed, if the job contains records, the Export Results option will appear in its Job Options menu.

3. At the job's Job Options, click Export Results.
   Plauti Deduplicate will show a summary of what will be exported, such as the number of records, which result fields, etc. 
4. In the summary window, click Export via Plauti Cloud or Export via Plauti Deduplicate to start the export.

The export appears as a subjob to the exported job in the Job Overview. As long as the subjob's status is set to Holding, the job has not yet been exported. Proceed by running the Export Job.

Running the Export Job

Next, run the actual Export Job. 

1. Log into your Plauti Cloud team at https://cloud.plauti.com/, or open Plauti Desktop.
2. At left, go to Plauti Deduplicate > Jobs > Pending and Running Jobs.
3. Find your export job. Its title will start with 'Export Results: ...', and it will have the 'Export Job'  label.
4. Click Start Job to start the Export Job. If you have 'Auto Run Jobs' enabled, the job will have started automatically.
   A confirmation pop-up appears.
5. In the confirmation pop-up, select a file type for the export results file: .csv or .xlsx.
   If you have 'Auto Run Jobs' enabled, the file type will be .csv.
6. Click Start to start the export job.
   Once the job is finished, it will appear at the Finished Jobs tab. In Plauti Deduplicate, the subjob's status will change to 'Completed'.

Retrieving the Export Results

After the export job ran successfully, you can download the results file.

1. Still in Plauti Cloud or Plauti Desktop, at left, go to Plauti Deduplicate > Jobs > Finished Jobs.
2. Find the export job. At right, click Download Results File  .

Plauti Cloud

In Plauti Cloud, the results file is downloaded to your browser's usual download location. You can also find it via the 'Downloads' button or option of your browser.

Results files downloaded via Plauti Cloud are locked with a password. Find the password as follows:

1. At the Finished Jobs tab, find the export job again.
2. Click the export job's name.
   The 'Job Information' window opens.
3. At Results File Password, click the encrypted password.
   The password is displayed, and copied to your clipboard.

You can now open the downloaded results file. When prompted, enter the copied password.

Plauti Desktop

In Plauti Desktop, when you click Download Results File, you are taken to the download location of the export file where you can open it right away.

You can also access the downloaded export file via /Users/<your-username>/plauti-apps/plauti-deduplicate-files.

Export more or fewer fields

Plauti Deduplicate will export the standard export files, plus the fields as defined in the Result Fields settings. To export more or different fields, add the fields you want to export to the Result Fields settings:

1. In Plauti Deduplicate, go to Deduplicate Setup.
2. At left, click Object Configuration.
3. At the object you want to add or remove fields for, click Configure.
4. On tab 'Result Fields', click Configure again.
5. To add fields, move them from Available Fields to Result Fields.
   To remove fields, move them from Result Fields to Available Fields.
6. Click Save.
