List view

Breandan Flood, August 1, 2025

The list view is one way data is displayed in Pipedrive. It uses a clear, linear view to make all of your information easily visible.

The following sections in your Pipedrive account have a list view display:

Leads
Deals
Contacts (people and organizations)
Activities
Projects
Products

Note: The Leads Inbox has features unique from other list views, which you can learn more about in this article.

What can I do in the list view?

The list view is a very versatile way to display your data, and it supports several actions, including adding, deleting, editing, filtering, sorting and bulk editing items.

Adding items

Use the “+” button at the top of your list view to add new items.

Note: The above example is from the contacts list view and shows the “+ Person” button, which is used to add new contact people.

Filtering

Click the “Filter” dropdown in the top right corner to add or apply existing filters to your list view.

Customizing columns

You can adjust the visible columns in your list view by clicking the gear icon on the far right side of the screen and checking or unchecking the desired columns.

Note: Check out our guide on customizing the columns of your list view for more in-depth information.

Editing field values

If you hover over a field in the deal, person, organization, activity or product list view, you can click the pencil icon to edit that field’s value.

Note: Not all fields can be edited directly in the list view, like the activity “add time”. In the deals list view, for example, you can change the organization or contact person linked to a deal. This won’t edit the original organization or contact details—only update which item is associated with that deal.

You can also edit multiple items at a time, which we call bulk editing, and explain in greater detail how to do it in the Bulk-editing and filtering article.

Refreshing your data

If you’ve recently imported new contacts or made updates that don‘t show up immediately, you can use the “Refresh” button to quickly reload your data without refreshing the entire page. This helps ensure your list view is up to date and responsive.

While you don’t need to use this button every time, it can improve performance in rare cases where the information isn‘t correctly displayed.

Alphabetical filtering

If you want to display all contacts whose first names start with a specific letter, click “All names” and choose the desired letter.

The “All names” dropdown will change to the selected letter. Click the “X” next to it to remove the filter and see all your contacts again.

Hovercards in the list view

Note: You can click on a person or organization in a hovercard to see the item’s detail view.

If you hover your cursor over a person, organization or deal in the list view, a card will open up and show the item’s basic information.

People – The card has the person’s name, email, phone and linked organization.

Organizations – The card has the organization’s name, address and linked person.

Deals – The card has the deal title, value, linked person or organization, expected close date and current pipeline and stage.
