Bring back the option to import contacts to an existing static list

The new import change has just caused me so much more work. Previously, I could choose to import contacts to an exsting list, and I had a static lsit that was linked to a communicaitons workflow. I was able to import and automate communications in one step.

 

Now, I have to import a list, create a new list, then enroll that list in a workflow. A one step process just became a three step process. I thought HubSpot was supposed to make my work simplier, not add more steps?

Following up to mark this idea as delivered. You can now add contacts imported into the CRM directly to a static list from the post-import results page.

REally annoying not having this feature, big and cumbersome hassle

I'm always suprised when I go to import contacts and this is not an option. When is this going to get fixed?

Just bumping this request up. I have the exact same situation as many in this thread where I have static lists that trigger workflows and I now have several un-necessary steps to upload new contacts to those lists.

Bumping this. Would be so much easier (and neater) to import leads this way.
