Downloading Visits Data

  • Updated

The Website Prospector report shows every visit to your beaconed pages, but sometimes the built-in view isn't enough - you want the raw rows in your own analytics tool, or you need a visualization the native report doesn't support. You can export that data to a CSV file and take it wherever you need it.

Why this matters: Downloading the raw data means you're not limited to what the Website Prospector report can show on screen - you can combine it with other data sources or build custom dashboards.

Download the Data

  1. Go to Inbound > Website Prospector.
  2. Select the time period you want at the top of the report:

  3. Your browser saves the download CSV file, best opened in Excel or other spreadsheet programs.

Report Details

Included in the report are page visits to any of your beaconed pages within the chosen calendar period.

  • Each row of the report represents a single page visit.
  • Each row contains the full profile data of known prospects and as much anonymous prospect information as can be inferred by the Act-On reverse-IP look-up.
  • Pages visited by known prospects (those whose Act-On Beacon cookie is linked to an email address) will have an entry in the Email column, and, in most cases, the Name column as well.
  • The columns included in the report are a combination of system-generated data fields and profile fields.
  • The profile data fields in the download report are a superset of list column fields from across all the Act-On marketing lists, sign-up lists, and webinar lists in your Act-On account, in which known prospects visited your site during the chosen time period.
  • Many Act-On lists may have identical column names, and these are not duplicated in the download (i.e., each column header in the download is unique).
