A list is a saved group of contacts or accounts in Apollo that you can organize, action, and track together.

Use the Remove Records from a List endpoint to remove contacts or accounts from one or more lists, referencing the lists by name. Removing records from a list doesn't delete the records themselves, it only removes them from the specified lists.

Provide the record IDs in entity_ids and the list names in label_names. To find record IDs, use the Search for Contacts or Search for Accounts endpoints.

If you provide no valid entity_ids or no label_names, the endpoint makes no changes and returns a 200 response with a confirmation message.

Body Params

entity_ids

array of strings

required

The Apollo IDs of the contacts or accounts to remove from the lists. IDs that aren't valid are ignored.

Example: ["66e34b81740c50074e3d1bd4"]

entity_ids*

label_names

array of strings

required

The names of the lists to remove the records from.

Example: ["Conference 2024 - Maui"]

label_names*

modality

string

enum

required

The type of records referenced by entity_ids. Must be contacts or accounts.

Allowed:

async

boolean

Controls whether the request is processed synchronously or in the background.

false (default): Apollo processes the request during the API call and returns the updated lists. A synchronous request must finish within the API's 5-minute (300-second) request timeout, so a large entity_ids batch can time out.
true: Apollo processes the work in the background and immediately returns an entity_progress_job object — instead of the updated lists — that you can poll for progress. Use this for batches large enough to risk the 5-minute timeout.
