List import source unset

Please confirm - if you do a list import, one of the columns should be source.

I was under impression that list import auto sets source to list name.

Hi David.
 

Create a smart campaign, if member of list = list one & lead source is empty, then (in flow steps) set Lead Source = List one. Run now.

Make sense?

Are there best practices/how-to link for correcting the list source? I have significant amount to correct.

I'd recommend adding a column for source if you're importing (as Dory said). But if you forget you can always go in and change the data value (source) for that list to update.

Hi David, you can assign an acquisition program upon list import, but I don't believe that source is automatically set to the list name. We have specific sources that are different than the list names, so I manually add the column for each list import.
