Hi,

I have been pointed here by the sales team at Hubspot. I need to pull a list at the contact level to show the name, role, industry, email, title & membership list of every contact I have in our CRM.

Most of our contacts have more than 1 membership list- So for each contact, I need the name of each of the membership lists it is in.

Membership lists are not inputted at the contact level when we upload as a value collum. But at an individual contact level, I can view this on Hubspot. I have been shown how i can filter by membership lists and if it’s known but this is still not what we need. We need a full contact list of what lists membership each contact has.

Please can you help?

Hi @CClegg3,

At this stage, there aren’t any straight forward ways to get this information. One would be via the [HubSpot Contact Lists CRM API](https://developers.hubspot.com/docs/api/marketing/contact-lists). Another would be a custom report (requiring a Professional or Enterprise license), under _Menu_ \> _Reports_ \> _Reports_ \> _Create custom report_ \> _Single object_ \> _Contacts_, displaying _List membership_ by _Count of contacts_. This report can then be exported.

For a workaround, you could consider storing the information about the list membership in a [custom property](https://knowledge.hubspot.com/crm-setup/manage-your-properties#create-custom-properties) instead (which could then be easily exported). You could create a multiple checkboxes property with values “List 1”, “List 2” and “List 3” and then [bulk edit this information for contacts](https://knowledge.hubspot.com/crm-setup/how-can-i-bulk-edit-contacts-companies-deals-or-tasks) based on list membership. Keep in mind that bulk editing multiple checkboxes properties will overwrite the existing values – which means that you might have to export your view in between bulk edits.

Don’t shoot the messenger.

Hope this helps!
