📤Export & Integration Issues
Fixing export and integration problems
Common solutions for CSV export failures, PowerPoint export problems, SFTP connection errors, and integration sync issues.
CSV Export Issues
Export fails or downloads empty file
Clear all filters before exporting; verify data is visible on screen
Check browser pop-up blocker — allow downloads from agentnoon.com
Try incognito mode or a different browser
If empty after filtering: verify your access scope includes the data
Missing columns
Enable columns before exporting: click the column selector, check the boxes you need
Fields hidden by your access group (e.g., salary) cannot be exported — contact admin
Missing rows
Clear all active filters; your access scope limits which rows you can export
Very large exports may be capped — export in batches using filters
CSV won't open in Excel / data appears corrupted
Import via Excel > Data > From Text/CSV, selecting UTF-8 encoding (don't double-click the file)
Numbers as text: select column > Data > Text to Columns > Finish
Dates export as YYYY-MM-DD; reformat in Excel if needed
Salary values should be plain numbers (no $ or commas) — clear formatting if needed
PowerPoint Export Issues
Export fails or times out
Allow downloads from agentnoon.com in your browser pop-up settings
Filter to a smaller scope (department or top 3 layers) before exporting
Wait up to 2 minutes for large orgs; if it times out, export in sections
Blurry or low quality
Show only 2–3 layers at a readable zoom level before exporting
For better control: export as PNG, then insert into PowerPoint manually
Wrong data in export
Verify you're viewing the correct scenario or Main Org, then refresh before exporting
Image Export Issues
Export is cut off / incomplete
Use "Fit to Screen" (zoom out) before exporting to capture the full visible area
For large org charts, use PowerPoint export (captures entire org) instead of image export
SFTP Integration Issues
SFTP connection failing
Go to Settings > Data Management > SFTP Integration
Verify host, port (usually 22), username, and password; click Test Connection
If test fails: test with FileZilla/WinSCP using the same credentials
External tool works → contact Agentnoon support
External tool also fails → issue is with the SFTP server or credentials
Check firewall allows Agentnoon IP addresses; verify key-based auth if applicable
SFTP file not found
Connect via FileZilla and confirm the file exists at the configured path (case-sensitive)
Verify filename matches exactly, including extension; check HRIS scheduled export is running
Use a wildcard pattern (e.g.,
employees-*.csv) if the filename changes
SFTP integration stopped working suddenly
Check if password, server, or certificate recently changed; re-enter credentials and test
Review integration logs: Authentication errors → credentials; Timeout → firewall/network; File errors → HRIS export
API Integration Issues
API connection failing
Verify API key in Settings > API Keys and Documentation; regenerate if needed
Check HTTP error codes: 401 = key issue, 403 = permissions, 429 = rate limit, 500 = Agentnoon issue
Test with curl or Postman; if works externally, check your integration config
Workday integration not syncing
Re-verify Workday credentials and test connection in Settings > Data Management > Workday Integration
Confirm integration user has read access to employee data in Workday
Review integration logs; contact support for API version compatibility issues
Scheduled Export Issues
Scheduled exports not running
Verify schedule is Active in Settings > Scheduled Exports; check correct time and frequency
Check spam folder for export emails; add [email protected] to safe senders
Use "Run Now" to test manually; if that works but schedule doesn't, contact support
Scheduled export has wrong data
Review filters and date range in the scheduled export configuration
Verify data is up to date (check last sync time)
Integration Sync Issues
Sync timing out
Orgs >10,000 employees may take 30–60 minutes — this is normal
Exclude terminated employees >12 months; schedule sync during off-peak hours
Syncing wrong data
Verify the source data is correct in your HRIS
Review field mapping in Settings > Data Management > Field Mapping and update if needed
Webhook failing
Verify the webhook URL; test with curl/Postman to confirm endpoint responds
Check Agentnoon webhook logs (Settings > Webhooks) for delivery status
Ensure your firewall allows incoming requests from Agentnoon
Export Permissions Issues
"Export permission denied"
Contact admin to verify your access group includes export permissions
Log out and back in after any permission change
Can export some data but not all
Your access scope limits which departments/data you can export
Contact admin to expand scope if needed
When to Contact Support
Contact [email protected] if:
Exports consistently fail after trying solutions
Integration connection fails with unclear error after credentials verified
Data syncing but values are completely wrong
Scheduled exports not running despite correct configuration
Include: export/integration name, exact error message, timestamp, screenshots, integration logs, and what you've already tried. For integration issues, add the integration type and connection details (no passwords).
