When adding a custom column to a report, where does the data come from?

Imported List
Static List
Smart List
Drill down data

The correct answer is: Smart List

When adding a custom column to a report in Marketo, the data is sourced from a Smart List. Smart Lists in Marketo are dynamic and can filter leads based on various criteria such as behaviors, attributes, and interactions. This allows you to create a flexible and responsive view of your data, tailored to specific marketing goals or metrics. Using a Smart List as the source for custom columns means that the data will reflect up-to-date conditions or actions taken by leads within the system. For instance, if you create a Smart List that captures leads based on engagement in a particular campaign, any report that incorporates this Smart List will reflect the latest data on these leads, ensuring accurate and informative reporting. In contrast, options like imported lists and static lists contain data that doesn't change unless manually updated, making them less suitable for reports that require current analytics. The drill-down data option also pertains to details within an existing report rather than the foundational data sets used for custom columns. This reinforces why Smart Lists are the best choice for dynamic reporting in Marketo.
