Get Contact List Count

Once a contact list is created, the Get Count button in the No. of Contacts column provides various counts for the number of contacts in the list. The table below explains what each of the different counts includes.

There are three different opt-in message types: Text Messages, Email Messages, and Voice Messages. In the Get Count options, SMS refers to Text Messages.

Count	Description
Total	Number of contacts that match the list filter. This even includes contacts opted-out of all message types for all subscriptions.
Subscribed To Any	Number of contacts that match the list filter and are opted-in to at least one message type for any subscription.
Subscribed to [Subscription]	Number of contacts that match the list filter and are opted-in to at least one message type for the specified Subscription Name.
Subscribed to [Subscription] (SMS)	Number of contacts that match the list filter and are opted-in to Text Messages for the specified Subscription Name. When pushing a text message campaign, this count will indicate the number of contacts to whom the campaign will be sent.
