HubSpot: Export Audiences

Keep your HubSpot email lists up to date with your Lytics audiences. Update and add properties from Lytics to HubSpot.

Integration Details

  • Implementation Type: Server-side.
  • Implementation Technique: REST API. Audience triggers.
  • Frequency: Real-time.
  • Resulting data: Contacts will be created or updated when they enter or exit the audience. User properties may be created if they are selected for export but do not exist in HubSpot.

This integration utilizes the Hubspot APIs to send user data. Once the export is started the job will:

  1. Check if the Lytics property group exists, and create the Lytics property group if it does not exist.
  2. Check if the selected properties exists in HubSpot. For the properties that do not exist, they will be created under the Lytics property group.
  3. Check if the selected list exists in HubSpot, if not create it. For dynamic lists, the filter will be ly_audiences CONTAINS the exported audience's slug.
  4. Create Batches of up to 100 users.
  5. Create/update the batch of contacts in HubSpot.
  6. If the list is static, add the batch of contacts to the List.
  7. As users enter the audience steps 3-5 will be repeated for them. The batch will fill for 5 min or until it reaches 100 users, whichever happens first.
  8. If users exit the audience they will also be added to a batch and updated in HubSpot like users entering the audience (steps 3-4). If the list is static, they will be removed from the list after being updated.
