HubSpot integration — full reference.

The most-used CRM integration in Mama. One-way push by default; two-way sync opt-in. Per-field mapping. Custom properties created automatically. This page covers everything: OAuth, mapping defaults, conflict resolution, common gotchas.

TL;DR

OAuth-connect once. Mama creates 4 custom HubSpot properties (mama_fit_score, mama_signals, mama_brief_url, mama_last_brief_date). Default direction: Mama → HubSpot. Two-way sync (HubSpot → Mama for closed-won status, opportunity stage) is opt-in per workspace. Conflict resolution defaults to "HubSpot wins" on any field overlap.

01Connecting

Settings → Integrations → HubSpot → Connect. Standard HubSpot OAuth flow. Required scopes: contacts.read/write, companies.read/write, deals.read (for closed-won feedback), custom_properties.write.

Admin role required in both Mama and HubSpot. Once connected, the integration runs continuously — no manual sync triggers needed.

02Custom HubSpot properties Mama creates

On first connect, Mama creates 4 custom properties on both Company and Contact objects in HubSpot:

PropertyTypeWhat it stores
mama_fit_scoreNumber 0-100ICP rubric score from Mama
mama_signalsMulti-line text (JSON)Active signals at last sync
mama_brief_urlURLDirect link to the Mama brief
mama_last_brief_dateDateWhen the brief was last generated

These show up in HubSpot's property selector. Use them in workflows, list filters, lead scoring rules.

03Default field mapping

Mama fieldHubSpot destination
Brief headline ("why now")Activity note on Company timeline
Brief URLmama_brief_url custom property
ICP scoremama_fit_score custom property
Active signalsmama_signals custom property (JSON)
Decision-makers (verified)Create as new Contacts under the Company
Decision-maker emailContact email field
Lookalikes (5)Skipped by default (opt-in)

Override any mapping from Settings → Integrations → HubSpot → Field mapping.

04Two-way sync (opt-in)

Default is one-way (Mama → HubSpot). When you enable two-way sync, these HubSpot fields flow back to Mama:

  • Closed-won status on Deals → updates archetype training in Mama (so the Reply Loop learns)
  • Deal stage changes → enriches the Mama account with deal-progress context
  • Contact lifecycle stage → influences "thread status" in Mama briefs (shows up as "in active pipeline")
  • Owner → mirrors HubSpot deal owner into Mama for "owned by you / teammate" filtering

Enable from Settings → Integrations → HubSpot → Sync direction.

05Conflict resolution

When Mama and HubSpot disagree on the same field (e.g., a contact's email):

  • Default rule: HubSpot wins. Mama defers to your CRM as source of truth.
  • Per-field override: set in Field mapping. For mama_fit_score the default is "Mama wins" because HubSpot has no equivalent.
  • Conflicts are logged in Push history with the resolution applied — review periodically.

06What "Push to HubSpot" actually pushes

Clicking "Push to HubSpot" on a brief sends:

  1. Company record — created or updated with Mama-sourced fields
  2. Activity note — full brief content as a note on the company timeline (with link back to Mama)
  3. Verified decision-maker contacts — new contacts created under the company
  4. Custom property values — mama_fit_score, mama_signals, mama_brief_url, mama_last_brief_date populated

Total push latency: 2-5 seconds. If HubSpot's API is slow, push queues and retries automatically.

07Disconnecting

Settings → Integrations → HubSpot → Disconnect. Removes the OAuth grant. The custom properties Mama created remain in HubSpot (Mama doesn't delete data on disconnect — that's destructive). Already-pushed data stays.

If you want to fully clean up, manually delete the 4 custom properties from HubSpot Settings → Properties.

08Common mistakes

Pushing every exploratory brief to HubSpot
Creates noise in HubSpot reporting. Only push briefs you'll act on within 14 days.
Enabling two-way sync on day 1
Two-way sync changes Mama behavior (archetype training, "in pipeline" flagging). Get used to one-way for a few weeks first.
Not using mama_fit_score in HubSpot lead scoring
The fit score is the single most useful field Mama provides for HubSpot workflows. Add it as a positive contributor to your lead score.
