Export behavior
This is what GrowthLoop writes when you export an audience.
| Behavior | What happens |
|---|---|
| What GrowthLoop writes | Membership on the Viant segment you named. Direction is GrowthLoop → Viant. |
| When it runs | GrowthLoop sends the export as a batch on the next successful run. An export that starts Now runs within about 15 minutes. |
| Segment | GrowthLoop sends rows to the Segment Name and Segment ID you entered. |
| Match field | Email, hashed as SHA-256. Additional mapped identifiers are included on the row. |
| Add | GrowthLoop inserts hashed identifiers into that segment. |
| One-time exports | GrowthLoop sends current membership once. |
| Ongoing exports | Ongoing exports add contacts who enter the audience. Viant exports do not support removals. |
| Deletes | GrowthLoop does not delete the Viant segment. Contacts who leave the GrowthLoop audience stay on the segment. |
Confirm the export was successful
When the run finishes, confirm you can use the data in Viant.
- Audience export: Sign in to Viant, open Identity Management, and look up the Segment Name you entered.

In GrowthLoop, review counts on the audience Exports tab. See Export an audience for more information.
