Connect HubSpot to Elido

Forward conversion events from Elido into HubSpot contacts and deals via OAuth — field mapping, refresh tokens, and what gets written.

Updated 2026-05-12

The HubSpot integration forwards Elido conversion events into HubSpot as contact properties and deal updates. When someone clicks a tracked link and completes a conversion goal, Elido pushes the attribution data (UTM source, campaign, click ID) to HubSpot — without you writing any code.

Connect via OAuth#

  1. Go to Dashboard → Conversions → HubSpot → Connect HubSpot.
  2. The HubSpot OAuth screen opens. Sign in with an account that has "CRM → Objects" access.
  3. HubSpot shows the requested scopes: crm.objects.contacts.write and crm.objects.deals.write. These let Elido write to contact properties and move deals through stages.
  4. Click Connect app. HubSpot redirects you back to Elido.

Refresh tokens rotate automatically. If you revoke access from HubSpot's side (Settings → Connected Apps), Elido immediately stops sending events and shows a "token revoked" error in the delivery log.

Map fields#

After connecting, go to Dashboard → Conversions → HubSpot → Configure:

  1. Contact properties — choose which HubSpot contact properties Elido writes to. Available Elido fields: utm_source, utm_medium, utm_campaign, utm_content, utm_term, click_id, link_slug.
  2. Deal stage — select the pipeline and stage that a conversion moves a deal to. Leave blank if you don't use HubSpot deals.
  3. Match contact by — email (if you capture email via your landing page) or HubSpot contact ID (for server-side attribution where you pass hs_contact_id in the URL).

What Elido writes to HubSpot#

Each conversion creates a HubSpot timeline event and (if mapped) updates the contact's properties. The raw payload Elido sends:

{
  "event": "conversion.recorded",
  "click_id": "clk_abc123",
  "value": 99.0,
  "currency": "EUR",
  "utm": {
    "source": "newsletter",
    "medium": "email",
    "campaign": "spring-2026"
  }
}

HubSpot shows this as a custom timeline event on the contact record. The deal stage update (if configured) fires in the same request.

What doesn't sync#

  • Click events without a conversion — raw clicks don't create HubSpot records. Only conversions do.
  • Historical data — the integration is forward-only from the moment you connect.
  • HubSpot → Elido — the integration is outbound only. HubSpot deal changes don't flow back to Elido.

Troubleshooting#

"Insufficient permissions" error — The HubSpot user who authorized didn't have CRM write access. Ask a HubSpot super admin to re-authorize from Dashboard → Conversions → HubSpot → Reconnect.

Contact not found — events dropped — If Elido can't find a matching contact by email or ID, the event is logged but not forwarded. Check Dashboard → Conversions → Delivery log for "no matching contact" entries.

Conversions arriving with wrong campaign attribution — Verify UTM parameters are present on the destination URL. Elido captures them from the click; if the link has no UTMs, the HubSpot fields will be empty.

OAuth keeps expiring — HubSpot revokes tokens for apps that don't call the refresh endpoint in 6+ months. The Elido integration refreshes on every event. If you haven't received any conversions in months, reconnect manually.
