Integrate with HubSpot

Suggest Edits

The impact.com Partnership Cloud can receive event data (e.g., lead form submissions) from HubSpot and track it as an action within the impact.com platform. You'll be able to identify specific event conditions that represent a conversion event, then configure a flexible mapping of data points to be sent from HubSpot to impact.com.

The most common use case is using HubSpot to monitor changes in status for contacts and deals (such as a lead turning into a sale), then reporting that data to impact.com as a conversion. From there, you can use the contracting and payment features of impact.com to credit partners for those actions.

⚠️

Note:

This integration supports the following standard HubSpot objects:

  • Deals (includes Line Items)
  • Companies

Prerequisites

⚠️

Note

  • You must activate consent for every single Hubspot entity you want to report conversions for.
  • You must map all required impact.com fields for the conversion to be successful.

This section covers the prerequisites to meet before installing the impact.com app to your HubSpot account.

Tracking Leads via impact.com or HubSpot

Track leads via impact.com

Events can be tracked using the impact.com UTT (Universal Tracking Tag), which is a small piece of JavaScript code that can be loaded using a Tag Manager solution, or placed manually on your website. Using the UTT offers richer user-level reporting in impact.com, supports Direct Tracking features, and more.

If you're planning to track lead events using the UTT, the Customer ID value sent via the TrackConversion function must also be available to the HubSpot objects that are being monitored and reported on. In other words, HubSpot needs to receive a Customer ID value in order for the integration to accurately correlate events.

Track leads via HubSpot

Lead submission can also be tracked through HubSpot. Impact appends an irclickId parameter + dynamic value (per click) on your landing page URLs. Example link: yourdomain.com?irclickid=clickid123. The clickId value (clickid123) must be captured and stored. When the user submits the lead form, the clickId value must be sent in a hidden field to HubSpot. There must be a consistent ID available in HubSpot objects that are being monitored and reported on to send in the CustomerId parameter.

⚠️

Note

If you're already tracking events with HubSpot or plan to do so, you can skip to installing impact.com in HubSpot.

Check before integrating

impact.com will complete several integration steps on your behalf. Check with your implementation engineer to ensure that the following configuration steps have been completed: Event Type, Gateway Tracking, General Tracking.

Install & connect impact.com in HubSpot

Once your impact.com is configured, you can install & connect the impact.com HubSpot extension to your HubSpot account. Then, configure field mappings so that data appears in both platforms as expected.

Install the impact.com app

  1. Navigate to the Partnership Cloud HubSpot Connector website.
  2. Select Click here to login through HubSpot, then log in with your HubSpot credentials.
  3. Select the HubSpot account you want to connect, then select Choose Account.
  4. Review the access that impact.com is requesting, then select Connect app.

Once completed, you'll be redirected back to the app configuration page to enable and configure it.

Connect your impact.com account

  1. Navigate to the Partnership Cloud HubSpot Connector website — in the impact.com HubSpot plugin menu, select Settings.
  2. Add your Account SID, Auth Token, and Program ID:
    • Account SID* — in the impact.com platform, navigate to
      [Menu] → Settings → API       to find your Account SID. Copy the full case-sensitive value.
    • Auth Token* — in the impact.com platform, navigate to
      [Menu] → Settings → API       to find your Auth Token. Copy the full case-sensitive value.
    • Program ID* — in the impact.com platform, select your brand name in the top left corner of impact.com. Your Program ID is shown in gray type under your Program name in the Program column. Enter your Program ID value (a.k.a Campaign ID value).
  3. Select Submit to connect your impact.com account.

Configure the impact.com HubSpot app

Enable event triggers

Use the Event Triggers screen to enable and disable the types of events you want to track in impact.com.

  • Set an event trigger to Active
    if you want impact.com to track a conversion (and thus, create an action) when a record of the specified event is created.
  • Select Add trigger for an event if you want impact.com to track a conversion (and thus, create an action) when a record of the specified event is modified.
  • Adding multiple triggers acts as an OR statement. For example, if Deal Type (dealtype) and Deal Name (dealname) are added, a conversion event will be created whenever either field is modified.

Configure field mappings

The Field Mappings section is where you can specify which HubSpot fields are associated with impact.com fields to ensure accurate conversion (and action) reporting in impact.com.

1850

Below are examples of field mappings for companies.

1850
  • Select Add mapping under an event to map a HubSpot field to an impact.com field.

Refer to the tables below for examples of associated mappings. For each section, select Add mapping to add them.

If you have set up any custom fields that are not available in the mapping dropdown, please try refreshing the custom fields by selecting the circle next to the section title.

Uninstall impact.com from HubSpot

Uninstall in HubSpot

Uninstalling impact.com in HubSpot will essentially pause the integration — if objects are updated or changed in HubSpot, it won't be reported to impact.com. Your settings will remain the same in case you wish to reinstall the integration in the future.

  1. Log in to your HubSpot account — in the top navigation bar, select Settings
    .
  2. In the left navigation menu, select Integrations → Connected Apps.
  3. Find the Scale partnerships: impact.com app and select Actions → Uninstall.
  4. Read the prompt, type uninstall into the text field and select Uninstall.

Delete account in impact.com extension dashboard

Deleting your account in the impact.com / HubSpot extension dashboard will delete your entire configuration. If you wish to use the integration in the future, you will need to reconfigure everything from scratch.

  1. Navigate to the Partnership Cloud HubSpot Connector website.
  2. In the left navigation menu, select Delete Account.
  3. Select Delete to delete your account configuration.
