Hi,

I want to find the lead by ID in UI via Smart List filters, but I cannot find any filters.

I can find the lead by Email address using Quick Find textbox.

Can you please help?

Note: I can find the lead by ID thru REST API call.

Thanks

Anil

When you open a lead detail record in the browser, you can replace the number at the end of the URL with the lead id and navigate to your desired record.  Not terribly intuitive, I know but it will work.

Hi Anil,

Can you give a use case why you would want to find a lead by the ID?

There's no way to search for a lead by ID because in practice this never happens. Leads have attributes or excite behavior which is interesting to filter on. A Lead ID doesn't tell you anything useful about the lead, other than the row number in the MKTO database.

I am integrating Marketo with CRM via Scribe where ID is the key.

For troubleshooting, I need to open a lead quickly by its ID.

Anyway I can use URL to open a lead by ID. Thanks to the post from Kenny below.
