Documentation for all fields in CLO (field type, field size, & field name)

Felipe Leon · July 2017

Hi all,

We just received an export, a huge data dump from Blackbaud but it seems we didn't actually receive any documentation that tell us what each field is and their corresponding field size and type. Does a list like this exist?

Something like this: https://www.blackbaud.com/files/support/helpfiles/luminate-online/help/luminateonline.html#../Subsystems/DataManagement/Content/Ref/Admin_Data_Sync_ManagingStandardConsImports_UnderstandingValid_DefaultFieldsTable.html?TocPath=Data%20Management|Data%20Import%2FExport|Standard%20Constituent%20Imports|Valid%20Standard%20Constituent%20Import%20Fields|_____1

The above was helpful but as you can see it only defined a few fields, far from most. If only could link me to a more extensive resource, I'd be much obliged!

I find a lot of insight looking at the Contact Database Configuration, if you have access to that. Also the Web Services docs tell you a lot. http://open.convio.com/webservices/#types.constituent.html - Also check out the Web Services Console Describe Type function.

None give field length, but still give you a peek under the hood a bit.
