Email data holds the answers to many questions. We dedicate ourselves to creating insights from your inbox. But what if you want to take things one step further, and create your own insights from your raw email data?

Your inbox is a treasure trove of insights into your behavior. Everything from the number of emails you send, the times you send them, who you talk to the most, and much more. It can all open your eyes to how you actually use your inbox—and how you work.

How to export your email data

NOTE: CSV Exports are a Pro and Teams feature in Email Meter — if you need access, get in touch and I'll activate a 2 week trial for you 😊
‍

Go to Email Meter and create the report you want to export. Make sure you include the date range, team members and filters you want. Anything the export includes anything you see in your report.

Click on CSV export in the top right, and you’ll receive a download link to your email shortly.

Now that you’ve got your raw data, you’ll see that it’s organized in a specific way. Email Meter uses your email ‘headers’, which are like labels on a package (rather than the contents). They contain all the information about where the email came from, when it was sent, whether it’s a reply, and much more. 

To get started with your data, we recommend using our template. Here you can paste in your data and will see some pre-made metrics for inspiration. You can find full instructions for this here.
