Subscribe to a Smart List subscribe-to-a-smart-list
Subscribing to smart lists is a great way to keep track of people, with reports sent right to your inbox.
You can create a smart list subscription in two separate places:
- Marketing Activities
- Database
Subscriptions use the full list of people at the time the subscription runs.
Subscriptions live where your smart list lives, in Marketing Activities or Database.
You can create multiple subscriptions from the same smart list.
Subscriptions are workspace specific. For example, this list of subscriptions is in a different workspace from the ones shown in the rest of this article:

Your new smart list subscription appears at the top of the list in the Subscriptions tab. Click Send if you want to send now, and not wait until the scheduled email delivery.

We recommend that you clear the Active checkbox to deactivate a smart list subscription if nobody is subscribed to it.
That was easy, wasn’t it?
Email Message email-message
Recipients will receive an email with an option to download the report, as well as a link directly to the list within the Marketo instance. The download link expires in four days.
If a report has 0 people in it, recipients will still receive an email. However, the email simply states that there are no people to report.
The email also provides additional information about the filters used to create the list.
Delete a Subscription delete-a-subscription
To delete a subscription, select it in the subscriptions tab and click Delete Subscription.
