Paste a List

Create a new Send Listy list by pasting one item per line, previewing the result, and choosing a list type.

Updated: September 22, 2026

Overview

Paste a List turns plain text into a new Send Listy list. It is intended for text where each item is on its own line.

Steps

  1. Open Paste a List.
  2. Enter a list name, or leave the name empty to use the default New List name.
  3. Choose a List Type. A type is required before the list can be created.
  4. Paste or type the items, one per line.
  5. Select Preview. Send Listy shows the parsed item count and the first items in the preview.
  6. Select Create list.

What happens next

Send Listy removes blank lines, trims whitespace, removes common leading bullet markers such as -, * and •, and uses the remaining lines as normal items. The Paste a List flow accepts up to 250 parsed lines in one operation.

Notes

After creation, the new list opens in the List Editor so you can review or change it. Paste a List creates a new list; Quick Add adds items to the list currently being edited.
