Saved searches are lists of contacts that fall under a search criteria, or fit the criteria for being on the list you are currently viewing.

2. Click the Save a Saved Search action to open the dialog window.

c. Click the Save button. You will see a confirmation message “Saved” when you are returned to the View Contacts screen.
Example of using a saved search
- You can run a search for currently active contacts that are in a certain state. This saved search will always stay up to date with those filters, so as more contacts in that state subscribe, they will automatically be included in this search.
- If you view a campaign report and select a data point like “clicks” you can view the members and create a saved search. If more people click on that email in the future, they will automatically be added to the saved search list.
Saved searches can sometimes be complex. Please talk to support if you need help.
