## What it does

## Arguments

| Argument | Type |   | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| `provider` | string | required | The Marketing-Automation provider to list lists for.one of: `HUBSPOT`, `MARKETO` |
| `list_type` | string |   | Optional list-type filter. If omitted, the provider's own list types are queried and merged (HubSpot: STATIC_LIST + ACTIVE_LIST; Marketo: all three).one of: `SMART_LIST`, `STATIC_LIST`, `ACTIVE_LIST` |
| `name` | string |   | Optional list-name filter (partial match). |

## Request

**Request template, not a complete runnable example.** Replace placeholders, empty objects, arrays, and zero values with valid account-specific inputs. Read required fields and nested constraints in the full schema. Confirm the account, connected channels, and referenced assets before calling a write tool.

## Response

Recorded with these arguments. Enum values are the first the tool's own schema declares; ids were fetched live from a `list_` call immediately before.

Real, from the production server, in **524 ms**. The full response was 32,266 bytes; this is the first part of it. Values that identify a customer or disclose money are replaced with typed placeholders; keys, types and nesting are exactly as returned.
