# Using List Criteria in Contact List Building

## Limit search results in Contact List Building with requirements for email, phone number, and source.

- **Primary Contact -**  Primary Contacts have a title, company name, at least 5 connections and a pre-validated email address. Selecting this field will limit the results to Primary Contacts.
- **Professional Email**- Selecting this field will limit the result to contacts with a professional email address. 
    - ***Note** - if email validation is selected AFTER download, then some of these records may fail validation and we will remove the email address.  Users are NOT charged a credit in this instance*.
- **Web Sourced Email**- Search results are limited to records that have a professional email address that was found on a public website.  The source will be noted in the "Web Sourced Email" field on the CSV download.
- **Any Phone Number-** When selected, at least one phone number from the HQ Phone, Local Phone, or Direct Dial will be populated.
- **Company Phone Number**- When selected, a HQ phone number is mandatory.
- **Email Validation Status**- The user may limit the search results to contacts with professional email addresses that have already been validated.  The choices are VALID / CATCH ALL / DETERMINISTIC /UNVALIDATED.
- **Minimum Followers** - Limit the results by the number of followers of a contact.
