Hi,

i am unable to find a good example on how to apply a date time filter when creating a contact list -

> **[Accounts Dashboard | HubSpot](https://app.hubspot.com/myaccounts?next=developerdocs&redirect=%2Fapi-reference%2Fcrm-lists-v3%2Fguide)**

Any example would be helpful

There are some notes on filters here -

> **[Accounts Dashboard | HubSpot](https://app.hubspot.com/myaccounts?next=developerdocs&redirect=%2Fapi-reference%2Fcrm-lists-v3%2Fguide)**

E.g. -

```lia-code-sample
{
 "filterType": "PROPERTY",
 "property": "createdate",
 "operation": {
 "propertyType": "datetime",
 "operator": "IS_EQUAL_TO",
 "timestamp": 1504703360618
 }
}

```

the above filter does not work. It keeps getting saved as -

```lia-code-sample
"filters": [
 {
 "filterType": "PROPERTY",
 "property": "createdate",
 "operation": {
 "propertyType": "datetime",
 "operator": "IS_BEFORE",
 "timestamp": 0,
 "defaultValue": null,
 "includeObjectsWithNoValueSet": false,
 "requiresTimeZoneConversion": true,
 "operationType": "datetime",
 "operatorName": "IS_BEFORE"
 },
 "frameworkFilterId": null
 }

```
