The Scenario
The email verification vendor needs a list. You are a marketing operations manager and the campaign goes out Thursday. You need all 2,400 person records from Attio — full name, primary email, job title, and linked company name — in a Google Sheet by end of day so you can run them through the verification tool before the send.
You've pulled contact exports from Attio before. The CSV comes out with email_addresses as a nested JSON blob, linked company as a record ID, and columns in an order that matches Attio's internal schema rather than anything the verification tool expects. The last time you did this you spent an hour unwrapping the email field in a separate column and doing VLOOKUP joins for company names.
The bad version:
- Export the Attio persons CSV, open it, write a formula to extract the primary email from the nested email_addresses field.
- Export the companies CSV separately, join on company record ID to get the company name.
- Reformat the columns into the order the verification vendor's import template expects.
You did this three months ago. You said you would script it. You did not script it.
The Easy Way: One Prompt in SheetXAI
SheetXAI is an AI agent that lives inside your Google Sheet. Through its built-in Attio integration it pulls person records directly into the sheet with the primary email extracted and the linked company name resolved — not IDs.
Export all person records from my Attio workspace into this sheet with columns for record ID, full name, primary email, job title, and linked company name.
What You Get
- One row per person, across all 2,400 records written automatically.
- Primary email extracted from Attio's multi-value email field — not a JSON blob.
- Company name resolved from the linked company reference — not a record ID.
- Columns in the order you specified, ready for the verification tool.
What If the Data Is Not Quite Ready
You only want contacts where the company is in a specific industry
Export all Attio person records where the linked company's industry is 'SaaS'; write record ID, full name, primary email, job title, and company name into this sheet.
You need a separate column for first name and last name
The verification tool wants them split.
Export all Attio person records with separate first name and last name columns, along with primary email, job title, and linked company name; write one row per person into this sheet.
You want to exclude contacts that have already been verified
There is a "verified" tag in Attio you've been applying after past campaigns.
Export all Attio person records that do not have the tag 'email-verified'; write record ID, full name, primary email, job title, and company name into this sheet.
Export, deduplicate on email, and flag records missing a job title in one pass
Export all Attio person records into this sheet with record ID, full name, primary email, job title, and company name; if two or more rows share the same primary email mark the duplicates with 'dup' in a QualityFlag column; if job title is empty mark 'missing title' in QualityFlag; otherwise leave QualityFlag blank.
Get the export, the dedup, and the audit done without opening the sheet three separate times.
