Can I remove a contact from an active list in HubSpot?

If you have a large number of contacts that you need to exclude from an active list, you can use the HubSpot Bulk Editor to export the list of contacts and then import the list into a spreadsheet.

No, you cannot directly remove a contact from an active list in HubSpot. However, there are a few workarounds you can use to exclude a contact from an active list:

  1. Update the contact to fail the active list's criteria. For example, if the active list is based on the contact's email address, you could update the contact's email address to something that does not match the criteria.
  2. Update the list criteria to exclude the contact. For example, if the active list is based on the contact's location, you could add a rule to the list criteria that excludes contacts from a specific location.
  3. Create a custom contact property and change the list criteria to exclude that property. For example, you could create a custom contact property called "Exclude from Active Lists" and give the contact a value of "Yes" for that property. Then, you could add a rule to the list criteria that excludes contacts with a value of "Yes" for the "Exclude from Active Lists" property.

If you have a large number of contacts that you need to exclude from an active list, you can use the HubSpot Bulk Editor to export the list of contacts and then import the list into a spreadsheet. You can then update the contact records in the spreadsheet to exclude the contacts from the active list. Once you have updated the contact records, you can import the spreadsheet back into HubSpot.

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.
