Use this interactive demo to learn how to export all your Salesforce contacts to Google Sheets.

Quick summary

This tutorial shows how to export contacts from Salesforce to Google Sheets using the Salesforce Classic print view — no third-party tools required. By switching to Classic mode and using the built-in print preview, you can bulk-copy up to 1,000 contact records in just a few steps.


Steps

  1. Navigate to the profile icon in the top-right corner of Salesforce.
  2. Click Switch to Salesforce Classic from the dropdown menu.
  3. Select Contacts from the top navigation menu bar.
  4. Ensure the dropdown is set to All Contacts and click Go.
  5. Click the Print icon in the top-right corner of the Contacts list.
  6. A print preview page with all your contacts will open in a new tab.
  7. Set the records-per-page view to a high number — such as 1000 — to load all contacts at once.
  8. Press Cmd+A or Ctrl+A to select all records, then Copy with Cmd+C or Ctrl+C.
  9. Open a new Google Sheet and paste your copied contact data.

📌 Why this matters

Exporting contacts from Salesforce is a common need for sales and operations teams who want to analyze, share, or back up CRM data outside the platform. This method leverages Salesforce Classic's print view to bulk-export up to 1,000 contact records at once — without requiring paid integrations or admin-level data export permissions. It gives any Salesforce user a fast, free way to move contact data directly into Google Sheets for reporting, outreach, or data enrichment workflows. For teams that rely on Salesforce as their source of truth, mastering this export process reduces manual effort and keeps contact data accessible across tools.
