Field Mapping 

When we connect the integration, we automatically pull back a list of the fields created in your Hubspot account. You now have the choice to send specific Mediahwawk data to those Hubspot fields.

Hubspot fields must be setup as a "string" 

Static number field mapping

Select the Mediahawk parameter you would like to send to your corresponding field in Hubspot. 

In this example we are sending the Keyword and Number description to Hubspot fields named the same

Dynamic campaign field mapping

In this example we are sending the UTM parameters captured on the visitor journey

Once you have setup all the field you would like to send data for. Simply click Save


Refreshing Field Mappings

If you have created new fields in your Hubspot account and want to show these in the mapping, simply press the refresh Icon and the static and Dynamic mapping. This will re-sync the connection and fields.
