Question

Connecting HubSpot leads with Mailchimp and retrieving category fields

Hey everyone,

I’m trying to connect my leads from HubSpot to Mailchimp using Zapier.
I’ve set up a Zap so that when a lead status changes in HubSpot, the corresponding contact in Mailchimp gets updated.

That part works fine, but I’m running into an issue:
I also want to retrieve the category of the contact from HubSpot and send it as an additional field to Mailchimp. However, when I try to map the fields in the Mailchimp step, I can’t find or select the “category” field anywhere.

Has anyone run into this before or knows how to solve it?

Hey ​@Dimitri_SH,

Can you show the data out of the Hubspot trigger as it should have fetched the category?

If it’s not working as expected, try adding a Find Contact explicitly and Category in additional properties to retrieve to see if it works.

 


Hope it helps!

Hi there ​@Dimitri_SH 👋 Was that Find Contact action Sparsh suggested able to retrieve the missing category info you were after?

Let us know how it went, want to make sure this gets sorted!
