# 🗂️ Views

Ever opened LinkedIn and had no idea where to start?

A saved view answers one useful question: **what should I work on right now?**

TalkToHumans has three kinds of views:

→ **Inboxes** for conversations.<br />→ **Contact views** for people in your network or workspace.<br />→ **Company views** for accounts and their related contacts.

## Create a view

<Steps>
  <Step title="Choose the object">
    In the left sidebar, find **Inboxes**, **Contact views**, or **Company views**. Hover over the section heading and click the `+` button.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Name the decision">
    Use a name that tells you what to do, such as `Warm replies`, `Follow up this week`, or `Paris founders`.

    Pick an icon and add a short description if teammates will use it too. Contact and company views can use a table or map layout.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Add filters">
    TalkToHumans opens the filter panel after creating the view. Add one or two conditions first, then check the results before making the logic more complex.

    Press `F` whenever you want to reopen the filters.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Choose the sort order">
    Sort around the decision you need to make. Recent replies may belong first in a response queue. Oldest unanswered messages may belong first in a follow-up queue.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Work the queue">
    Open the first row. Use `J` and `K` to move forward and backward while keeping the current view as your queue.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Useful view ideas

### Replies that need attention

Filter around inbound replies, unread state, response status, or last message direction. Use this as a daily response queue.

### Follow-ups due soon

Filter around scheduled state and the next step date. This gives you one place to review what will send before it runs.

### Warm leads

Filter on a shared `Warm lead` tag, then sort by last message date. This keeps real conversations separate from inbox noise.

### Pending invitations

Build a contact view around received or sent invitation state. You can review connection requests without digging through native LinkedIn.

### Contacts in a location

Create a contact view, choose **Map**, and filter by country or city. Enriched location data makes the map more useful.

### Bring-your-own-data lists

Add an ICP score, CRM stage, owner, or segment through a [custom contact field](/docs/product/advanced/custom-fields), then filter and sort on it.

## Change columns in contact and company views

Contact and company tables let you choose which columns appear and drag them into the order you want. Each view keeps its own layout, so a prospecting view can show different context from an enrichment review.

Inbox columns are opinionated and cannot currently be customized the same way.

## Manage visible and hidden views

Hover over a view section in the sidebar and click the settings icon. From there you can:

→ Reorder views.<br />→ Move views between visible and hidden groups.<br />→ Edit or duplicate a view.<br />→ Restore a hidden default such as **Archived**.<br />→ Delete a view you no longer need.
