Lists
Dynamic lists that update themselves and frozen snapshots — for broadcasts, follow-ups and reports.
A list is a saved set of records from one object. Lists are how you say "these people" once and reuse it — as a broadcast audience, a call sheet or a segment to report on. Find them under Inbox → Lists.
Dynamic and frozen lists#
| Kind | How it behaves | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Dynamic | A live query. Every time you use it, it re-runs and returns whoever matches now. | Health policies expiring in 30 days, Active SIP investors, Leads from digital marketing |
| Frozen | A snapshot. It keeps the members it had when you froze it. | Diwali greetings 2026 (40 people), Claims Saathi clients (24 people) |
Use a dynamic list when the audience should change as your data changes — renewals coming up, investors who are active this month. Use a frozen list when you need a fixed record of exactly who received something, such as a festival greeting you don't want to send twice.
The lists table shows each list's object, type, member count and when it last updated.
Lists in practice#
- Broadcasts. Every broadcast goes to a list. A dynamic Motor renewals due list means next month's reminder reaches next month's customers without anyone rebuilding it.
- Call sheets. Share a list with a telecalling team, or feed it into a flow.
- Reporting. Count, chart and compare segments over time.
Through the API#
Lists live under /docs/api/lists. Create one with a name, the object it draws from, a mode — dynamic or static (the console calls static lists frozen) — and, for dynamic lists, the query that defines it:
POST /api/v1/lists{ "name": "Leads from digital marketing", "object": "lead", "mode": "dynamic", "queryText": "SELECT Id FROM lead WHERE lead_source = 'Digital Marketing'"}Then:
GET /lists/{id}/recordsreturns the members, paged withlimitandcursor;POST /lists/{id}/refreshre-evaluates a dynamic list;POST /lists/{id}/freezesnapshots its current members.
Reading lists needs objects:view; creating, refreshing and freezing need objects:use.
