Create a list
Last updated: November 10, 2026
Lists let you group companies, people, opportunities or deals so you can work them, share them with your team, enrich them or export them.
Where to find it
Open the Deals page in the left sidebar and select the Lists tab, or go to https://commercial.credplatform.com/lists.
Create an empty list
On the Lists page, click Create List and choose New List.
Give the list a name.
Choose the list type, for example Company or Person. The type decides what the list can hold and can't be changed later.
Optionally, pick a folder and add a description.
Choose who can see it:
Private: only you.
Only Invited: you and the people you invite.
All Members: everyone in your workspace.
Click Save.
Add records to a list
From search: on the Companies or People page, select rows (or Select All), click Add to list, and choose your list. You can also create a New List from there.
From a file: on the Lists page, click Create List and choose Import Data to upload a spreadsheet of companies or people. CRED matches each row to its records.
Automatically: turn the list into a dynamic list so matching records are added as your data changes.
People for a company list: open a company list and use Generate Contacts to create a people list. See Advanced Generate Contacts.
A list holds up to 100,000 members.
Credits
Creating a list and adding records to it doesn't use credits. Importing a file uses credits for matching rows to CRED records, and enriching or unlocking records in the list uses credits as usual. See the Credit Consumption Table.
FAQs
Can I change who can see a list after creating it?
Yes. Open the list, edit it, and change its privacy setting.
Why can't I add people to my company list?
A list holds one type of record. Create a person list for people, or use Generate Contacts on the company list to create one.
My list stopped growing at 100,000.
That's the most a list can hold. Split the records across two lists.
