Synchronize Contact Information in HubSpot and respond.io
Understanding Contact Syncing Logic
There are four tasks that can be automated in order to sync contacts.
Sending data from respond.io to HubSpot
- Create or update a contact in HubSpot when a new Contact is added in respond.io.
- Create or update a contact in HubSpot when a Contact is updated in respond.io.
Sending data from HubSpot to respond.io
- Create or update a Contact in respond.io when a new contact is added in HubSpot.
- Update a Contact's information in respond.io when the Contact is updated in HubSpot.
Create or update a contact in HubSpot when a new Contact is added in respond.io.
When a new Contact is added in respond.io, the Zapier template will automatically search for that contact in Hubspot using the email as the identifier. These are the expected outcomes.
Trigger Event | Conditions | Actions |
New Contact is added in respond.io | Contact exists in HubSpot | Update Contact in HubSpot with new details |
New Contact is added in respond.io | Contact does not exist in HubSpot | Create a new HubSpot Contact |
New Contact is added in respond.io | Contact does not have an email in respond.io | Zap will stop |
Method
- Use a Zapier template
How-to
Use this template:
Template Configuration
Respond.io Trigger
Run the trigger test and continue on to the action.
Filter Action
This template contains a filter so the Zap will only continue if the respond.io Contact’s email address exists. This is because HubSpot has set email as the required identifier to be used by Zapier.
HubSpot Action
Map the fields to be filled in for the newly created Contact. HubSpot has a long list of fields, but email is the only mandatory one. Scroll down and choose any other fields you want to add, e.g., first name, last name, phone number. If you have created Custom Fields in respond.io that match certain HubSpot fields, consider mapping those as well.

Respond.io Trigger
For this trigger, you’ll need to choose which updated fields you want to be included as a trigger. There is the option to select Standard or Custom. For this example, we chose Standard as this would be the best choice for most common use cases. Add all relevant fields by selecting from the dropdown.
