All products and plans |
Each CRM object in HubSpot (contacts, companies, deals, and tickets) has an index page that displays the object’s records. Depending on your subscription, you can also filter and segment your custom object, call, and payment records on their respective index pages.
These index pages also include actions and filters you can use to customize and segment your records. Learn more about creating CRM records in HubSpot.

Select filter criteria
Before you select criteria for your view, learn how to choose filter options to segment your records. On each index page, you can only filter by that object’s properties.
To set your criteria in a view, click All filters, then in the right panel, select a property. Depending on the property's field type, choose an option to set criteria for that property:
-
contains exactly: enter a value. A record’s property value must contain the exact text entered to be included in the view. To search for a value with multiple words in a specific order, or including non-English characters, you'll need to enter your value in double quotes (e.g., "HubSpot knowledge base") to filter for an exact match.
Please note: non-alphanumeric characters included in criteria values are treated as delimiters, not as characters themselves. For example, filtering by HubSpot_knowledge_base> will search for values containing HubSpot, knowledge, and base, treating the _ and > as spaces. Even if you use double quotes, such as "HubSpot_knowledge_base>", it will search for values containing "HubSpot knowledge base" in that exact order, but not for values containing the other characters.
-
doesn’t contain exactly: enter a value. A record’s property value must not contain the exact text entered to be included in the view. Records with no value for the property will also be included.
-

-
is after: for Date picker properties, select a date on the calendar. A record’s property must have a date value that is after the selected date to be included in the view.
-

-
is before: for Date picker properties, select a date on the calendar. A record’s property must have a date value that is before the selected date to be included in the view.
-
is between: for Date picker properties, select two dates on the calendar. A record’s property must have a date value that is equal to or after the first selected date and equal to or before the second selected date to be included in the view.
-
