Sort and filter people
Sorting users
ProofHub offers two ways to sort your user list:
![](https://help.proofhub.com/swift/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/sort-people.png)
- Sort by role: This option arranges users based on their assigned roles within ProofHub (e.g., admin, normal user, or custom roles). Sorting by role can be helpful when you need to quickly identify users with specific permissions.
- Sort by name: This option arranges users alphabetically. Sorting by name is a simple way to find users you know or locate them quickly within a large list.
Filtering users
ProofHub also lets you filter your user list based on user’s role and their status.
![](https://help.proofhub.com/swift/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/Filter-people.png)
- Filter by role: You can filter the list to display only users with a particular role (e.g., admin, normal user, or custom roles). This is useful when you need to focus on a specific user group for communication or task assignments.
- Filter by status: You can filter based on user status (e.g., active, suspended). This allows you to quickly identify active users or manage suspended accounts.
Download people list
ProofHub offers a convenient way to export a complete list of all users in your account as a CSV file. This downloadable file contains valuable details about your team members, including their names, email addresses, ProofHub status (active, suspended, etc.), and assigned access roles.
You can download this CSV file through the context menu in the People section.
