Adding Followers/Following Reports to a List
Isolate the segment of a Report you want using filters, then add those results into a List!
If you want to add some or all of the profiles from a Followers/Following Report to a List, there are 2 ways to do so.
Creating a List from the Lists filter
- Open a Report and filter the results down to a specific market segment or persona that you are looking for (if applicable)
- Click the Lists filter
- You can create a new List from the drop down or search for existing Lists
- Click the grey arrow to the right of the List you want to add the Report to
- Select "Add current results to list"
Creating a List from the Actions button
- Open a Report and filter the results down to a specific market segment or persona that you are looking for (if applicable)
- Click the "Actions" button
- Click "Create List"
- Enter a List Name
- You are also able to add tags to categorize the list for another layer of organization
- The options you have are:
- "Create an empty list": This creates a List but does not add any Followers
- "Add current search results to this list": This creates the List and adds the Followers in your view to that List
- "Import Instagram/Twitter profiles from CSV file": See Creating a List using CSVs for more details
Adding the profiles from a Followers/Following Report to a List will allow you to use the Compare feature to analyze multiple audiences and identify certain data points such as audience overlap.
*Please note: Despite our best efforts, Surf Analytics will no longer be able to update Instagram data outside of uploaded reports. Recently, Instagram changed its API significantly, incapacitating our ability to capture data. Since then, we've been working to document and modify our processes. Our developers have reached the conclusion that this is no longer feasible.
