Why Extract from Campaign Monitor Reports?
Campaign Monitor provides campaign reports including opens, clicks, bounces, unsubscribes, forwards and link activity. Each report contains subscriber-level engagement data with email addresses.
While the general Campaign Monitor export is covered in Extract Emails from Campaign Monitor Export and segment data in Extract Emails from Campaign Monitor Segments, this article focuses on report-specific exports for engagement-based lists.

Working with the Results
Engaged subscriber lists
Extract emails from subscribers who opened or clicked. Import into a CRM for sales follow-up.
Share tracking
Campaign Monitor tracks email forwards. Export subscribers who forwarded the campaign to identify advocates.
Re-engagement
Extract emails from subscribers who did not open. Use for re-engagement with different content.
Verify addresses
Recorded opens and clicks do not confirm a human reader or a currently reachable mailbox. Security scanners can generate clicks, and privacy features can generate opens; compare activity with replies or conversions before interpreting engagement. See Mailchimp’s explanation of automated opens and clicks and Apple’s explanation of background content loading. Bounced addresses should be removed. See Best email verification services.
Things to Know
Contact data is not preserved
Email Extractor outputs email addresses only. Names, custom fields, engagement counts and other Campaign Monitor fields are not carried over.
