Hi,

I am looking for a couple of automations for pinned notes. I’d like to have the ability to pin a note during the import process. If this isn’t possible, is there a workaround?

I would also like to have the ability to remove a pinned note after a certain time period. Some notes only need to be pinned for a certain amount of time. If we pin multiple notes, it is a hassle to unpin each note manually.

Any ideas?

Hi @SHinojosa3,

Unfortunately, this doesn’t currently seem to be possible. Pinning a note seems to be a pure UI feature, not an activity property.

Other users have already requested this: [https://community.hubspot.com/t5/HubSpot-Ideas/Pin-Note-on-Import/idi-p/301509](https://community.hubspot.com/t5/HubSpot-Ideas/Pin-Note-on-Import/idi-p/301509)

(The product team reviews these requests based on their popularity. You can help other users find this request more easily by accepting my reply as a solution. I’d appreciate it, too!)

As far as removing the pinned status goes, this would require activity-based workflows which aren’t a thing yet, unfortunately.

Best regards!

Checking, is this still a feature limitation?
