How to Extract Emails from Drip Automations

Export and import options vary by plan, permissions and product version. Check the platform’s current help documentation if a menu or format differs. Use only contact data you are authorized to process; an extracted address is not proof of marketing consent.

Why Extract from Drip Automations?

Drip is an email marketing and automation platform designed for ecommerce. Its automation workflows trigger based on subscriber behavior: purchases, page views, cart abandonment, tag additions, form submissions and more. Subscribers move through these workflows automatically, receiving targeted emails and having tags or custom fields updated along the way.

Extracting email addresses from Drip automation data is useful for auditing which subscribers went through a specific workflow, building follow-up segments, sharing data with teams outside Drip or analyzing workflow performance.

While the general Drip export is covered in Extract Emails from Drip Export, this article focuses on automation-specific data.

Multiple workflows
