This article will explore the types of Lists within My Profiles and their intended purposes.


In basic terms, there are two types of lists: Default Lists and Custom Lists. Default lists are at the account level and cannot be renamed; they are visible to all users across the account. Conversely, Custom Lists are those you create by pulling a Prospect list or by uploading a Screening list, or by creating a custom list to transfer records from one list to another. Custom lists can be modified and shared as needed.



1. Unlisted: This default list preserves all the searches you've saved, and its name cannot be altered. However, you retain the ability to transfer profiles from this list to a new one. 


  • Note: Once the records in the list are transferred to other lists, the Unlisted folder will disappear from My Profiles. To bring it back, you'll need to save a new profile.


2. Inner CircleThis default list contains all the Inner Circle members you've created. You can populate your IC list by searching for members within the WE platform or by performing a bulk upload using the IC template.
