Export All Motion Workspace Users to an Excel workbook

The Scenario

You are the HR coordinator at a 50-person professional services firm. Licence renewal for Motion is next month. Your CFO wants to know exactly who is using the tool before approving the renewal quote. You need the name and email of every user across three Motion workspaces in one Excel worksheet — and you need to match it against the HR roster already in your workbook to see if there are any accounts that belong to people who have left the company.

You have the HR roster in Sheet2. You have admin access to all three Motion workspaces. You do not have an export button.

The bad version:

  • Open Motion Workspace 1. Settings, Members. Count: 14 users. Copy each name and email into Sheet1. Some emails are personal addresses that do not match the company domain — note them.
  • Switch to Workspace 2. Settings, Members. 16 users. Copy. Realize three of these people also appear in Workspace 1.
  • Switch to Workspace 3. Settings, Members. 9 users. Copy.
  • Write VLOOKUP formulas to compare the Motion email list against the HR roster in Sheet2. Two formulas are broken because the email formatting is inconsistent — one list has trailing spaces.

The CFO needs the reconciliation by end of week. Manual data entry followed by broken VLOOKUP debugging is not the plan you had in mind.

The Easy Way: One Prompt in SheetXAI

SheetXAI is an AI agent that lives inside your Excel workbook. It connects to Motion and pulls user data across all three workspaces in one request. Open the sidebar and ask.

Fetch all users from Motion workspaces WS-001, WS-002, and WS-003 and compile them into one sheet with workspace name, user name, and email — flag any email that appears in more than one workspace.

What You Get

  • Every user from all three workspaces written to Sheet1: workspace name, user name, and email.
  • Any email appearing in multiple workspaces flagged in a status column.
  • One row per user, ready to compare against the HR roster.

What If the Data Is Not Quite Ready

You need to cross-reference against the HR roster already in Sheet2

Sheet2 has the company email list in column A. You want to flag any Motion user whose email is not in that list.

Fetch all users from Motion workspaces WS-001, WS-002, and WS-003 and write workspace name, user name, and email to columns A, B, and C in Sheet1. In column D, mark "HR mismatch" for any email in column C that does not appear in Sheet2 column A.

You need user IDs included for the licence management tool

Your IT team's licence management system needs Motion user IDs, not just emails.

List all users in my Motion workspace and write their name, email, and user ID to columns A, B, and C.

You only need one workspace's user list for a department audit

The CFO only needs Workspace 2 for this quarter's renewal scope.

List all users in Motion workspace WS-002 and write their name and email to columns A and B.

Full reconciliation — cross-workspace list, HR mismatch flag, multi-workspace flag, and a summary

Everything the CFO and HR need in one workbook: who is in each workspace, multi-workspace users, HR mismatches, and a count per workspace.

Fetch all users from Motion workspaces WS-001, WS-002, and WS-003. Write workspace name, user name, and email to columns A, B, and C in the Users worksheet. In column D, flag any email appearing in more than one workspace as MULTI-WORKSPACE. In column E, flag any email not found in Sheet2 column A as HR MISMATCH. In the Summary worksheet, write one row per workspace with workspace name and total user count.

All of it — one prompt.
