Update Hubspot Contact using Find to locate Object ID

Hi everyone,

I have a question that’s been previously covered, although not in sufficient detail to address my issue.

Goal: I’m trying to update a Hubspot contact based on a trigger elsewhere (Mighty Networks). Since the Update Contact action for Hubspot requires an Object ID identifier not available in my source platform, I understand I can use a Find Contact step between trigger and action to first locate the record.

Challenge: When I create the Find Contact in Hubspot step, for First Search Property Name I don’t see Email Address as an option use as the common identifier. What am I missing to do? I sense it’s something simple but not obvious to me.

Thanks for any help this community can provide!

Hi Troy,

Thanks for your reply! This property was indeed what I was looking for, and have now found.

Could you help with the separate question, about “Additional properties to retrieve.” How does this function work? If I could use one, I don’t seen where I map this to the correct Hubspot property.

Thank you and best regards,

Stryk
