Adding Segment Search results to a list

This topic covers what happens when you click Add → Add to list in Segment Search: which columns arrive, when it's free, and how people already in the list are merged. For how a Segment Search itself works and what it costs, see "Segment Search: the audience database".

Add to list#

Tick the rows you want with the row or header checkbox. With nothing ticked and more hits than are loaded, ListPlus asks How many contacts to add? — the ones loaded, a number, or all; further pages cost credits each, with the price shown before you confirm. If the search fits on the page, the page is taken. Click Add → Add to list, then either pick an existing list — free — or click New list, which costs credits, the same as a file import.

Columns that arrive#

Each added row brings first name, last name, job title, company name, industry, company size, website, company domain, LinkedIn profile URL, LinkedIn company URL, city and country. Email and phone are always empty on arrival — Segment Search' search results never include the address or number itself, only whether a verified one exists — so enrich or reveal them in the list afterwards.

For advanced users#

Adding to an existing list checks for contacts already in it: a row that matches one by email, then LinkedIn URL, then phone, then name plus company is merged into the existing row (empty cells filled) instead of added again. The message afterwards says how many were added and how many merged. Duplicates that were already in the list stay — run the list's duplicate check for those (see "Finding and merging duplicates"). Creating a new list costs credits (all prices are in "Price list: what every action costs"); adding to an existing list is free.

FAQ#

What columns do I get when I add Segment Search results to a list?#

First name, last name, job title, company name, industry, company size, website, company domain, LinkedIn profile URL, LinkedIn company URL, city and country. Email and phone columns are added but stay empty until you enrich or reveal them in the list.

Why are email and phone empty after adding to a list?#

Segment Search's search results only show a masked preview of email and mobile, never the full value, so nothing lands in those columns when you add rows to a list. Revealing an email in Segment Search doesn't fill it into the list either, so add the rows first and then run enrichment on the list to fill email and phone in bulk.

Can I add all my search results at once, not just one page?#

Yes — click Add → Add to list with nothing ticked: when the search has more hits than are loaded, ListPlus asks "How many contacts to add?" and offers the ones loaded, a number, or all. Every further page that has to be loaded costs credits, and the window shows the maximum before you confirm.

Can I add just some rows instead of the whole page?#

Yes — tick the checkbox on each row you want, or use the header checkbox to select the whole page at once, then click Add → Add to list. Only the ticked rows are added; with nothing ticked and more hits than are loaded, ListPlus asks how many to add (the ones loaded, a number, or all).

Does adding from Segment Search twice create duplicates?#

No — people already in the list (matched by email, LinkedIn URL, phone, or name plus company) are merged into their existing row instead of added again, and the message says how many were merged. For duplicates that were in the list before, open the list, click Analyze and use the Duplicates checks — see "Finding and merging duplicates".

How do I find the list after adding contacts from Segment Search?#

A notification with "Click to open" appears right after the add — click it to jump straight to the list you just added to or created. Otherwise, it's in your Lists like any other list.
