Dialpad + Hubspot V2

We know you love HubSpot and have been using our native integration for years. Dialpad is on a mission to constantly iterate and innovate, and so we’ve created Dialpad for Hubspot V2! Enjoy all the features of our existing integration, and add SMS logging for personal and shared numbers, ticket and SMS workflows, note and task logging, and, of course, better contact management.

Let’s dive into the details.

🚧 This feature is currently in an Early Adopter Program and is not yet available to all users. 🚧

If you’d like to join the Early Adopter Program, please reach out to your Customer Success Manager.

Requirements

To use the Hubspot V2 integration, you must be on a Pro or Enterprise level Ai Voice, Ai Sales, or Ai Contact Center plan.

You’ll also need a HubSpot license on a HubSpot Sales Free, Starter, Professional, or Enterprise plan. Users need App Marketplace permission, as well as edit access to CRM, Contacts, Deals, Company, and Notes.

If you’d like to enroll in the Early Adopter Program (EAP), please reach out to your Customer Success Manager.

Connect your Hubspot account

Once Hubspot V2 has been enabled for your company, each team member must connect their Hubspot account.

From the Dialpad app:

1. Open a conversation

2. Click on the person’s name, or the Skinny Bar

3. Navigate to Hubspot V2

4. Select Connect Hubspot V2

   

5. Enter your Hubspot credentials, then grant permissions

Note

If you have HubSpot V2 and Hubspot V1 enabled, multiple activities will be logged to HubSpot.

To test v2, create a temporary office or contact center with v1 disabled, and v2 enabled.

If that’s not possible, ask your team members not to ‘Connect to HubSpot’ in the HubSpot V2 widget.

Contact matching

Once connected, all your recent HubSpot contacts are downloaded as Dialpad contacts.

This means any time you select a contact on Dialpad, their HubSpot information will appear on the sidebar.

Rematch a contact

Need to change the matched contact? No problem!

To change (rematch) a contact:

1. Hover over the contact details in the Hubspot V2 widget

2. Select Rematch

   

3. Enter a different contact’s name or number in the search bar

4. Select the name of the contact you’d like to match

Multiple contact match

If multiple contacts are found, you’ll see potential matches listed in the Hubspot V2 widget.

To match the Diapad contact to the correct Hubspot contact, select the name.

No contact match

If the Dialpad contact or number is not already assigned to a Hubspot contact, use the search bar to find an existing Hubspot contact.

Create Hubspot contact

If the Dialpad contact or number does not match to an existing Hubspot contact, create a new Hubspot contact right from the Dialpad app.

To create a new Hubspot contact:

1. Access the Hubspot V2 widget from the conversation

2. Find the widget by selecting the contact’s name, or opening the Skinny Bar

3. Select Create new record

   

4. Enter the contact’s details

5. Select Create

   

Tip

Hubspot contacts can be created at any time. You can create them from the conversation panel, or during an active call.

Call logging

If a Hubspot contact is matched to a Dialpad call, call details are automatically logged to Hubspot. You can also manually log a call by logging a note during the call.

In Hubspot, you’ll see the call direction (inbound or outbound), the URL to the Dialpad Call Summary, and the link to the call recording.

If the call was a Contact Center call, you’ll also see the call disposition details.

SMS logging

If a Hubspot contact is matched to a Dialpad SMS interaction, and SMS logging is enabled in Hubspot, SMS messages sent via Dialpad are automatically logged to Hubspot.

To enable SMS logging, head to your Activity tab in Hubspot. Under Filter activity, check the box beside SMS.

Note

To enable SMS logging from a Contact Center, your Admin needs to (re)authenticate the Contact Center from its integration settings. This is a one-time activity.

Service ticket automation

There is nothing more frustrating than a customer calling your Contact center, and your team missing their call. And to mak matters worse, your team failed to follow up as well. This is where Service Ticket Automation comes into play. Automatic ticket creation eliminates manual work and automatically creates tickets based on call and SMS activity.

Based on your ticket creation settings, new Hubspot tickets can be created for missed calls or messages (and more!) and contain statuses such as ‘New’ or ‘Waiting on Us’.

This is how the activity would look like against a contact:

Based on this view, you can also create a Kanban View on the ‘Service Tickets’ module of HubSpot.

Keep in mind that by default, these tickets are logged to the default Service Pipeline.

SMS campaign workflows

If you use HubSpot to manage SMS campaigns, you can define a list of numbers that you want to use to send SMS campaigns.

Admins can add or remove SMS workflow numbers at any time from the SMS workflows section of the integration settings.

Once you’ve specified numbers, they will appear on the Workflow while setting up Actions such as Send SMS.

The below image demonstrates a complete SMS workflow.

Advanced settings

Customize your office or company’s Hubspot experience using our Advanced Settings.

1. Head to the interactions section of your Contact Center, Office, or Company

2. Beside Hubspot V2, select Options

3. Select Manage settings

   

Here, you can customize your call logging and ticket creation settings, as well as your SMS and SMS Workflow preferances.

Let’s take a look at each one.

Call logging settings

In the Call Logging section, define how and when you’d like calls to be logged to Hubspot.

Let’s look at the options.

• Log calls as activities: When enabled, a Hubspot call activity will automatically be created for each call.

• Log missed calls as activities: When enabled, a HubSpot activity will be created for missed calls with and without voicemail.

• Post call recordings to Hubspot: When enabled, a link to the user's call recording will be posted to the Hubspot activity.

• Post Ai transcript URL to Hubspot: When enabled, a link to the call's Ai transcript would be posted to the Hubspot activity.

Check the box beside each setting you want to define, then select Save.

Ticket creation settings

Define when you want new tickets to automatically be created each time a call occurs.

For each scenario, select what ticket type you’d like to be created.

SMS settings

Determine if SMS messages should be logged as activities and set your default country code.

SMS workflow settings

Enter the phone numbers that you want to allow Hubspot to send messages

Don’t forget, these numbers must belong to your company, and be assigned to an office or contact center.

Create a task

Once a Hubspot contact has been assigned to the number, use the Hubspot V2 widget to create a task that will log to Hubspot, and appear in Dialpad.

To create a task:

1. Open the Hubspot V2 widget

   1. Access the widget by selecting the contact’s name, or by opening the Skinny Bar

2. Select Create Task
   

   

3. Enter the Task details

   1. Be sure to set the Priority and Task type

      

4. Select Create

Once created, you’ll see your Task in Hubspot.

Create a note

Once a Hubspot contact has been assigned to the number, use the Hubspot V2 widget to create a note that will log to Hubspot, and appear in Dialpad.

To create a note:

1. Open the Hubspot V2 widget

   1. Access the widget by selecting the contact’s name, or by opening the Skinny Bar

2. Select Log Note

   

3. Enter the note details

   1. If the contact has any assigned deals, you’ll also see the option to link one of their deals to the note.

4. Select Log

   

Logged notes appear under the Activities section for a matched Hubspot contact.

Frequently asked questions

Can I use the original Hubspot integration at the same time as Hubspot V2?

You can, but we dont’ recommend it because multiple activities will get logged.

To avoid this, you must create a temporary Office or Contact Center and disable the original Hubspot integration while you test Hubspot V2.

If that’s not possible, you must inform your team members not to connect to HubSpot V2 from the sidebar. This is only during the EAP phase.

Why isn’t SMS logging working for my Contact Center?

Before you’ll be able to log SMS message from your Contact Center, you must authenticate (connect) the Contact Center to Hubspot from your Contact Center settings. This is a one-time activity.

When calls are logged via a shared line, who are they logged to?

When shared line calls are logged, the caller ID that displays is that of the shared line.

When SMS messages are logged via a shared line, who are they logged to?

Currently, SMS messages are not logged to a number, however, this functionality is coming soon, so stay tuned.

Should we disable the original Hubspot integration if we are using Hubspot V2?

Having both Hubspot integrations active will lead to duplicate activities.

If you are testing V2 and want to keep Hubspot V1 active, please create a temporary office or Contact Center and make sure that the temporary office does not have Hubspot V1 enabled.

Can a call be logged to a company, or only to a contact?

If the contact is associated with a company, all the activities will automatically appear on the respective company's website.

Will newly created activities in HubSpot push contacts forward in HubSpot sales workflow?

Yes, all the automation and workflows will work based on these activities.

Can we send automated text messages?

Yes. To send automated text messages, you need to enter the list of numbers that will be sending messages in your SMS Workfow Settings

Once provided, these numbers will appear on the workflow editor actions.

Is inbound and outbound calling from HubSpot possible?

Not yet, but its coming soon! Dialpad is working closely with Hubspot to facilitate this functionality, if you are interested in this feature, please contact them to enroll to their Calling SDK Program.

Do I need special permission on HubSpot to access this integration?

Yes, to install the integration, you need to be either a Super Admin or a user with App Marketplace access.

To use the integration, you need edit access to CRM, Contacts, Deals, Company, and Notes.

Can I edit a note?

Not yet, but stay tuned as this will be added soon.
