Good day HubSpot Community,

We are starting to work with Workato’s HubSpot integration, and I would like to know how to go about creating a list, and then adding a batch of contacts into that newly created list.

It would be part of a bigger recipe, but currently all the rest works. So I was hoping to know if anyone has been able to proceed accordingly? Are there limitations to the number of contacts being added to the list?

Thank you very much for you assistance on this issue.

Hi @JLetellier

Thanks for reaching out — integrating list management into a Workato recipe is a common (and powerful) use case.

I’d like to bring a few Community members into the conversation who’ve worked with **Workato + HubSpot** integrations and list automation.  
@MSauer9 @RubenBurdin [@Jigar\_Thakker](https://community.hubspot.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/610147) — hope you’re all having a great week! Have you created HubSpot lists via Workato and then added contacts in bulk? Any known limitations around list types (static vs. active), batch sizes, or API constraints to be aware of?

Appreciate any guidance or examples you can share here.  
Best,  
Victor

Hi @JLetellier

Hey, I have attached the API link from where you can create a list in the instance. There you will find the update api as well, from which you can update the existing list in the HubSpot as well. Create a pvt app in the instance and provide the scopes mentioned in the doc, then you can use that access token to hit the API.  
Here is the link -  
[https://developers.hubspot.com/docs/api-reference/crm-lists-v3/lists/post-crm-v3-lists](https://developers.hubspot.com/docs/api-reference/crm-lists-v3/lists/post-crm-v3-lists)

I hope this will help you out. Please mark it as **Solution Accepted and upvote** to help another Community member.

Thanks!
