Hello,

We currently have an Airtbale Integration setup within Hubspot. Its pulling quite alot from Airtable in terms of data and we are experiencing some time lags within our Hubspot instance now. Is there a way to control the time of integration syncs? Can this only be done once a day? or a set time?

the native hubspot-airtable sync doesn’t give you control over timing unfortunately, it just runs continuously. if its slowing things down, a couple things helped us: first, trim the fields you’re syncing to only the ones you actually need. every extra field adds to the sync load. second, if you don’t need real-time sync, you could swap the native integration for a make or zapier setup that runs on a schedule, like once a day at 2am. more control and it won’t bog down your instance during working hours.
