Overview

If you use HubSpot, you must know how much of an ally it is.

Click on Import new data

Then select the source of data you want to import, in this case HubSpot:

Whenever you start a new HubSpot connection you can choose whether you want to build an import from scratch or use a template you’ll have already saved.

If this is your first time connecting HubSpot to Dokin, you’ll want to choose “Build from scratch”:

If this is your first time connecting to HubSpot, you will be asked to connect your HubSpot account to Dokin. To do so, click on “Connect”:

You will then be redirected to your HubSpot authentication page, where you need to choose the HubSpot account that you want to connect to Dokin. Choose the one, and then click on “Choose Account”:

  • Select the fields of each object to import as columns in your spreadsheet
  • Add any filters for your data
  • Name your import
  • Schedule automatic data syncs (optional)

We can now choose to sort data as we wish (e.g. by Country, by Job title etc.), give a name to our template and decide whether we want our report to refresh Manually or automatically. 

In case you want it to refresh automatically, you can choose to do so on a Weekly, Daily or Hourly basis: 

Once you click on import, Dokin will run the connection and your HubSpot data will be imported into your spreadsheet. You can manually refresh it by clicking on the refresh icon of your Hubspot connection.

You can now import setup a new connection and import new data or refresh the one you already have.

Step 5: Save as a template

You can now also save your connection as a template and re-use it whenever you want to import new data. Click on “Add as a template” in the option menu:
