Export All Google Contacts to a Google Sheet

The Scenario

You're three weeks into a CRM migration. The new platform is ready. The import template is ready. The one thing you're missing is a clean, complete export of all 1,200 contacts currently sitting in Google Contacts — with no duplicates, in a format the CRM import wizard can actually read.

You've done the Google Contacts export twice already. The first time, the CSV had four email columns with no label, the company field was blank for half the records, and the import wizard rejected the file entirely. The second time, you manually cleaned the CSV in Excel and the CRM still choked on a formatting quirk in the phone column.

The migration is supposed to be done by Friday. It's Wednesday.

The bad version:

  • Export from Google Contacts again, open the CSV in Excel, manually rename the columns to match what the CRM expects, delete the columns it doesn't accept, fix the phone formatting by hand, re-upload
  • Write a filter formula to find duplicate emails in the CSV, manually delete the duplicate rows, save, re-upload
  • Ask the IT team to "write a script" to do this, wait three days, get a script that works for their test data but breaks on your actual export

None of those paths ends before Friday.

The Easy Way: One Prompt in SheetXAI

SheetXAI is an AI agent that lives inside your Excel workbook. It can pull your entire Google Contacts library directly into the workbook — formatted the way you need it, with deduplication applied, in a single operation.

Export all my Google Contacts to the "Contacts Export" worksheet with columns for Full Name (A), Primary Email (B), Phone (C), Organization (D), Job Title (E), and Last Updated (F) — include all pages of results and deduplicate by email address

What You Get

  • Every Google Contact written to the "Contacts Export" worksheet, one per row, across all pages of results
  • Columns labeled exactly as specified: Full Name, Primary Email, Phone, Organization, Job Title, Last Updated
  • Duplicate email addresses collapsed to a single row (most recently updated record kept)
  • Row count written to a summary cell so you can verify the total before importing

What If the Data Is Not Quite Ready

Some contacts have multiple email addresses — you only want the primary

Export all my Google Contacts to the "Contacts Export" worksheet — for contacts with multiple email addresses, write only the one flagged as primary to column B; if no primary is flagged, use the first email listed; leave column B blank for contacts with no email

You only want contacts that were created or updated in the last 90 days

Export all my Google Contacts updated since 2026-02-13 to the "Recent Contacts" worksheet with columns for Full Name, Email, Phone, Organization, and Job Title — sort by Last Updated descending

You need to split the export across two worksheets — one for contacts with an organization and one without

Export all my Google Contacts — write contacts that have an Organization field set to the "Business Contacts" worksheet, and contacts with no Organization to the "Personal Contacts" worksheet, both with columns for Full Name, Email, Phone, and Job Title

The CRM import needs specific column names and a status field pre-populated

Export all my Google Contacts to the "CRM Import" worksheet with exactly these column headers: contact_full_name, contact_email, contact_phone, contact_company, contact_title — add a column F with the header import_status and the value "pending" for every row, deduplicate by contact_email, and sort by contact_full_name alphabetically

One prompt handles the export, the column renaming, the deduplication, and the status field. No intermediate steps.
