Smart Lists

Create dynamic lists based on filters. For example, "All contacts with tag 'enterprise' added in the last 30 days" will automatically update as new contacts match the criteria.

Finding Contacts

Use the search bar to find contacts by name, phone, email, or company. The search is instant and searches across all fields.

Advanced Filters

Apply filters to narrow down contacts:

Filter	Example
By Tag	tag = "enterprise"
By Date Added	created_at > "2024-01-01"
By Source	source = "hubspot"
By Campaign Status	campaign_status = "never_called"
