Listing of All Available Fields in Raiser's Edge
Hi! Does anyone know of a quick way to get a listing of all available fields in the Raiser's Edge besides literally writing them all out manually? Due to the recent incident, trying to give my managers a listing of all the non-encrypted available fields in RE.
Thanks so much.
Thanks so much.

Hi Alicia,
You can try the following:
Go to Configuration, open Fields, and select Constituent. You'll see "Birth date," "Birthplace," "Constituent Code," etc. Right-click on any of the field names and select "Export to Excel."
You can repeat this with the other field types (Action, Address, Appeal, etc.). It's not clear to me if the incident captured literally every field in Raiser's Edge, but Constituent, Credit Card, Gift, etc. Anything financial.
Hope this helps! -- Duane5 -
Hi Duane,
Thanks so much! A quicker option than I get from Support.0 -
Thank you for posting this! I have been going through the same thing. Not much assistance other than to look at the fields in our product database. Searching the knowledgebase was not helpful and support said they cannot provide a listing for us. I will try Duane's option as well. Thank you all!
P.S. - If anyone finds out anything more, please post. Sounds like we are all going through the same thing!1 -
Cross-posted from another thread on this topic: exporting the list of fields from Config will give you an IDEA of MOST of the fields, and perhaps the most important ones, but it certainly will not give you all the fields in RE -- just look at the Phone option, for example. While this might also not be 100% perfect, here's what I posted in the RE group on Facebook on Friday that is likely much more comprehensive: The easiest way to get a list of fields in RE is here: https://www.blackbaud.com/docs/default-source/how-to-documentation/raisers-edge-how-to/raisers-edge-user-guides-administration/import.pdf With that consider: (1) the list of encrypted fields that are not at risk per BB (https://kb.blackbaud.com/articles/Article/47633); (2) ADD your Attributes which won't be here (easy to print or PDF with File, Print from that screen); (3) REMOVE the fields for RE optional modules you don't have; and (4) MODIFY the list for any fields you use other than as intended. On this: IMHO, do *not* start exporting a ton of information from RE, especially the sensitive fields, to a spreadsheet to analyze, search, etc. the data or fields. Do not create a new security problem to solve another one: data in a spreadsheet on your computer is a security disaster waiting to happen when someone gets ahold of that spreadsheet, computer, laptop, etc. And deleting a file does not actually delete it.
Original post above 7/17. 7/21 addition: Today I realized that with #2 in my post above I was thinking "RE 7" and "RE NXT database view." Blackbaud's emails reference "Blackbaud Raiser's Edge NXT" for some I've seen. Be aware that I don't know where or how Blackbaud stores and backs up RE NXT web view exclusive content, like Attachments (although there are other fields as well), and to my knowledge has not clarified whether this breach involves RE NXT database view only data or "all" of RE NXT. I also do not know of a source for a list of those fields. So, I would add to #2 above (5) ADD RE NXT web view-only fields if your organization is on RE NXT.6 -
Edit #2 7/22: Sorry for this additional edit, but BB had over 2 months to prepare for this announcement and I've had less than a 1 week to try to help you all in my "spare time." I realized last night that the Import Guide understandably only includes fields that can be imported into RE 7/the RE NXT database view. It does *not* include *all* fields, such as the constituent and proposal Media tabs. I still think it's the best place to start for the quickest, biggest list available for RE fields, but I need to point out it does not include every single field. If you want to be 100% thorough, you should (6) COMPARE the guide to your live copy of RE and ADD to the list fields in your system not in this guide, like Media.5

Does anyone already have all fields in RE exported to Excel that they can share with group. Apparently this is being asked for by executives regarding security incident.
Thank you

Hi Patty,
I took the link from Blackbaud support below, one for RE7 and one for RENXT and put them in seperate tabs and sent to Executive committee.
In your post I did not see an attachment?0 -

Thank you Patti, sorry when I clicked on reply on site it didn't include attachments. You had it, I had to go back to discussion to see them.

Our Sr. Accountant is out of the office, so Exec asked me for fields in Financial Edge? Anyone have in Excel.
Thank you,
