There are so many clicks if we want to go to the associated Lead from the contact list itself.

The “Contact → Leads” or “Contact(Primary) → Lead” column values only show a text with Lead name(s). Is there a way to make these clickable? Or a workaround where we can access Leads from Contact list view?

Hi @MRatnadiwakar,

At the moment, no, there doesn’t seem to be an out of the box way to create a clickable link directly on the contact index page. You could request this in the HubSpot Ideas section of the community: [https://community.hubspot.com/t5/HubSpot-Ideas/idb-p/HubSpot\_Ideas](https://community.hubspot.com/t5/HubSpot-Ideas/idb-p/HubSpot_Ideas)

Here’s what I’d suggest for a workaround, requiring a Professional subscription:

Create a custom lead calculation property: [Create calculation and rollup properties](https://knowledge.hubspot.com/properties/create-calculation-properties)

(Replace blurred part with your own portal ID and remove -eu1 if you’re not on the HubSpot EU hosting. In any case, simply navigate to any lead in the prospecting workspace and copy the link after removing anything after leadID=)

Then, create a contact sync property: [Create sync properties that copy data to associated records](https://knowledge.hubspot.com/properties/create-sync-properties)

 ![karstenkoehler_1-1719893787379.png](https://d2qpr2jzcazej7.cloudfront.net/original/3X/2/7/2714cc3a7b8e5e36029d1cca381dc55f4d1cb9e4.png)

You now have a field that you can add as a column on the contact index page.

Without a Professional subscription, this can currently not be done as far as I know.

Best regards!

Hi Karsten,

Above is helpful and i tried it. It works as you showed but the link is not clickable. Any idea why?

@MRatnadiwakar you’re right, that was a habit of mine that I didn’t notice when working with plain text links: By double clicking the plain text URL you’ll be able to select it, then right click and open in new tab. It’s not a directly clickable link but still a fast way to access the lead.
