Export structured lead submission records to CSV from your TryQRMint dashboard for spreadsheet and CRM management.
1. The TryQRMint Data Export Architecture
To set clear operational expectations, it is important to understand how TryQRMint manages submission records:
- Form-Submission Data Workflow: Successful submissions are stored in TryQRMint's form-submission data workflow and displayed in the QR owner's Submissions dashboard.
- Centralized Submissions View: Inquiries appear under `/dashboard/qr-codes/[id]/submissions` with search, status filters, and individual response modals.
- Business Plan Entitlement: CSV export requires the Business entitlement. Dashboard/form availability otherwise depends on the account's current product entitlement and form status.
- Manual Import Workflow: TryQRMint does not provide direct native API integrations or automatic two-way background synchronization with HubSpot, Salesforce, or Zapier. Instead, data is exported as a clean CSV file and imported into your external CRM using the platform's standard file import tool.
2. Step-by-Step: Exporting Submissions to CSV
Exporting your submission records takes just a few clicks from the dashboard:
- Step 1 — Navigate to QR Codes: Log in to your TryQRMint account and open the main QR Codes management view.
- Step 2 — Select Submissions: Find the specific Lead Capture QR code and click the 'Submissions' button (or open the QR code details menu).
- Step 3 — Filter or Review: Optionally filter submissions by status ('New', 'Contacted', 'Converted', or 'Closed') or search for specific contacts.
- Step 4 — Click Export CSV: Click the 'Export CSV' button in the upper right toolbar. Your browser will download a file named `[qr-name]-submissions-[date].csv`.

3. Structure of the Exported CSV File
The exported CSV is organized cleanly with standardized columns followed by your dynamic custom fields:
| CSV Column Header | Data Format | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Submission ID | UUID String | Unique database identifier for each individual response. |
| Submission Date / Time | ISO Timestamp (UTC) | Exact timestamp when the visitor tapped submit. |
| Status | Text String | Current workflow status ('new', 'confirmed/contacted', 'completed/converted', 'cancelled/closed'). |
| Custom Form Question 1 | Respondent Input | Matches your configured label (e.g., 'Full Name'). |
| Custom Form Question 2 | Respondent Input | Matches your configured label (e.g., 'Email Address'). |
| Custom Form Question 3 | Respondent Input | Matches your configured label (e.g., 'Phone Number'). |
| Dynamic Custom Fields... | Respondent Input | All additional fields (dropdown choices, checkboxes, project notes) in the order configured. |
4. Importing CSV Leads into Excel and Google Sheets
Once downloaded, opening and working with your submission data in spreadsheet software is instantaneous:
- Microsoft Excel: Double-click the `.csv` file or select File > Open > Browse to view all rows. Use Excel's 'Format as Table' feature to enable instant sorting and filtering by service category or date.
- Google Sheets: Open a blank Google Sheet, select File > Import > Upload, and drag the CSV file into the browser. Choose 'Replace current sheet' to populate your leads with correct column alignment.
- Data Cleaning: Because respondents type their own information into validated fields, you avoid handwriting misinterpretation and missing digits common with paper notes.
5. Importing CSV Leads into External CRMs
Download the CSV from TryQRMint, open your destination platform's current CSV import workflow, map TryQRMint columns to the destination fields, review the preview, then complete the import:
- Field Mapping: Map exported columns (such as Full Name, Email Address, Phone, and custom questions) to corresponding fields in your destination system.
- Spreadsheet Tools: Compatible with Microsoft Excel, Google Sheets, Apple Numbers, and open-source spreadsheet software for quick sorting, filtering, and data grooming.
- CRM & Marketing Platforms: Import into CRM platforms (such as HubSpot, Salesforce, or other compatible CRM tools) using their standard file import wizards.
- No Automatic Sync: TryQRMint provides structured file export rather than native background API sync, giving you direct control over when and what records are uploaded.
Final Takeaway
Exporting lead capture QR code submissions to CSV gives businesses data portability through CSV export. By downloading clean, structured spreadsheets from the TryQRMint dashboard, sales teams can seamlessly bridge real-world print campaigns with modern digital CRM workflows.

CSV export requires the Business entitlement. Dashboard and form availability otherwise depends on the account's current product entitlement and form status.
No. TryQRMint does not currently provide native real-time CRM API synchronization. Submissions are stored in your dashboard and can be exported as a CSV file for manual import into CRM or spreadsheet software.
CSV exports are generated on a per-QR code basis from each code's dedicated Submissions manager. This keeps campaign datasets organized by individual flyer drops, trade shows, or yard signs.
Dashboard access and CSV export capabilities depend on your account's current subscription entitlement and active form status. Upgrading to Business restores CSV export functionality for available form submissions.
