Solving Zapier Email Integration Issues with HubSpot

Published on Feb 28th, 2024

When it comes to streamlining workflows between HubSpot and your email service, Zapier stands out as an efficient automation tool. However, many users encounter a common issue: emails not appearing in Zapier from HubSpot. This can halt productivity and disrupt communication, but luckily, it’s an issue that can usually be resolved with a few troubleshooting steps.


Firstly, it's essential to ensure that the Zapier integration with HubSpot is set up correctly. Verify that you have connected your HubSpot account to Zapier and that the necessary permissions are granted to access your emails.


Next, check the trigger setup in your Zap. If you're trying to pull in emails from HubSpot, you must select the correct trigger event. For instance, if you are looking for new email activities, your trigger should be set to ‘New Email Event’ in HubSpot.


Another common issue might be the lack of new data to trigger the Zap. Zapier relies on new information to initiate actions. If there haven’t been any new emails since the last time your Zap ran, nothing will show up. Perform a test by sending a new email to your HubSpot account and see if it triggers the Zap.


It’s also worth checking if your HubSpot email is filtered or tagged in a way that doesn’t match the criteria set on your Zap. For example, if your Zap is configured to trigger for emails with a specific label, any email without that label won't trigger the Zap.


Lastly, make sure there's no interruption in the services. Occasionally, downtime or connectivity issues with either HubSpot or Zapier can cause delays or failures in triggering Zaps.


If you’ve gone through these steps and still face issues, it’s beneficial to consult Zapier’s support resources, or contact their support team for further assistance. Persisting difficulties with integration can often indicate a need for a more in-depth look into the systems involved.


Integrating HubSpot with your email via Zapier should be a seamless process that enhances your productivity and efficiency. With a bit of troubleshooting and these tips, you can ensure that your email-related workflows remain uninterrupted.
