The People page is your contact database. It holds every person you’ve imported across every channel and event, deduplicated by email. From here you can search, filter, open a person’s detail page to edit them, merge duplicates that slipped through, and export the filtered list to CSV.

​
Find a person

Open Path → People. The toolbar above the table is your finder.
  • Search. Type into the search box to match name, email, or phone.
  • Event. Multi-select. Show only people who registered for one of the selected events.
  • Channel. Multi-select. Show only people attributed to one of the selected channels.
  • Company Name. Text filter that matches against the company display name.
  • Job Title. Text filter that matches against job title.
Filters combine with AND; every active filter narrows the list further. The table updates as you type; pagination resets to the first page on every change.

​
Edit a person

Click any row to open the person’s detail page. Most fields are inline-editable. Click the value to open an editor, change it, and confirm. Editable fields include:
  • Name. Display name shown in tables and exports.
  • Emails. Primary + secondary. The primary email is the dedupe key (see below).
  • Phones. Multiple phones per person.
  • Company. Pick from an existing company or attach a new one.
  • Job title, Address, LinkedIn, X. Single-value text fields.
Changes save when you confirm; the table refreshes the next time you open it.
Email is the dedupe key. When TalkValue imports a row with an email that already exists, it updates the existing person rather than creating a new one. Changing or deleting the primary email does not undo previously deduplicated records. For that, use Merge.

​
Merge duplicates

Sometimes the same person ends up as two records, typically when one record was created from a CSV with maya.chen@northwind.io and another came in through Eventbrite as maya@northwind.io. The fix is to merge them.
1

Open the person who should remain

Open the detail page of the record you want to keep, the target.
2

Start the merge

Open the actions menu and choose Merge person. A search dialog opens.
3

Pick the duplicate

Search for the duplicate by name or email and select it. TalkValue shows a side-by-side preview: source on the left, target on the right, merged result on the bottom. Single-value fields take the target’s value by default; multi-value fields like emails and phones are combined.
4

Confirm

Use the swap button if you want the source’s values to win instead. Click Merge records. The source record is removed; every event registration, channel attribution, and activity log from the source rolls up onto the target.
A merge history block appears on the target’s detail page. You can undo any merge from there; TalkValue restores the source record and unlinks the rollup.

​
Export to CSV

Click Export CSV in the table toolbar to download the current view as a CSV. Columns include name, primary email, all emails, phones, company, job title, channels, events, and timestamps. The export includes everything Path stores for each person. The export reflects the active filters. To download just one channel or one event, apply the filter first and then export.
