How-toChecked 2026-10-10

You will have a named list, ready to fill or already holding the businesses you ticked.

Steps

  1. In the Lists area, click New list. (You can also choose New list… in an Add to list menu.)
  2. Type a Name, up to 80 characters, for example "Sheffield accountants".
  3. Under Campaign folder choose No folder, an existing folder, or New folder and type its name (up to 80 characters).
  4. Click Create list. If you started from ticked rows the button says "Create and add N".
The New list box with a name and a campaign folder choice
New list. 1 Name. 2 Campaign folder.
  1. Name.
  2. Campaign folder. Optional.

What happens next

An empty list opens, with "This list is empty". Fill it from Businesses with Add to list, from a record, or from an uploaded file. See Add businesses to a list.

If you started from ticked rows, the businesses are added at once and the page says "Added N businesses to {name}".

If the name is taken

You cannot have two lists with the same name. If you type a name you already have, Adapt opens that list instead and says "You already have a list called {name}. Here it is." If it was archived, it comes back.

From an uploaded file

On Enrich a list, after matching, Save N matches as a list opens this same box with the matches in it and the file's name suggested. See Read your Enrich a list results.
