How to Prefill a Form Using the Data From HubSpot?

August 4, 2022

HubSpot Prefill allows you to prepopulate your form with contacts or companies data from your HubSpot account. This will allow you to get all or some of the data from HubSpot and pre-populate your form with that information.

  1. In the form builder, go to the Publish tab.
  2. Click on the Prefill option.
  3. Select the HubSpot Prefill option from the list.

  1. Click on the Add a New Prefill button. A pop-up will be shown with the HubSpot record list where you can select all or some particular records. You can also use the search bar to find a record. After that, click on the Create button to generate prefilled URLs for the selected data.

Note

While you can select all records, you can only create 20 Prefilled URLs at a time. Therefore, selecting all and clicking the Create button will not work. You will receive a message indicating the limit instead.

  1. You can preview the prefilled forms by clicking the URL under the prefill name and see the form with prefilled information. Or you can click on Add a New Prefill button to create more prefilled URLs.

  1. By default, users can edit the pre-filled data. If you do not want users to edit the data, you can change the permission from Can Edit to Read Only. Click Can Edit and click the Read-Only option.

  1. When you click on the Send Invitation button, a popup window will appear to enter the recipient’s email address of each prefilled URL. It is optional, but you can also add a message. Once ready, click the Send Invitation button at the bottom of the window.

Note

You can select all Prefilled URLs, but note you can only send an invitation to up to five (5) people at a time. Selecting more than this number will display an error message.

  1. On each Prefilled URL, clicking on the 3-dot menu will allow you to do the following:
    • Send Invitation: If you wish to send the prefilled URL individually or wish to resend it if the user lost the previous invitation.
    • Copy URL: If you wish to send the prefilled URL manually.
    • Rename: If you want to change the name of the Prefilled URL.
    • Delete URL: To delete the prefilled URL.
