FAQs:
Q. My CSV has more records in it than my segment did. Why is this?
When a CSV Download Campaign is generated, the campaign forces the segment to re-run so it has the latest list of students. Any alterations to the segment will be included in this updated list. However, once the campaign is generated, it becomes a static list which means you can compare results across different time periods.
Q. How many student records can I download at once?
A. CSV Downloads are capped at 50,000 records. This is to ensure the download processes quickly.
