Is it on the road map to enable forms to update specific properties inside of a Custom Object? Or is this possible through 3rd party integrations like zapier?

Hi [@SeanB\_407](https://community.hubspot.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/135334)

Welcome to the Community!

At the moment this is not possible with HubSpot, I’d recommend voting for [this idea](https://community.hubspot.com/t5/HubSpot-Ideas/Use-a-form-to-populate-custom-object-data/idi-p/366405) on our ideas forum. I’m wondering what other alternatives our experts have found.

Hey @ndwilliams3 @Josh [@Phil\_Vallender](https://community.hubspot.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/74) any recommendations you can share with [@SeanB\_407](https://community.hubspot.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/135334)?

Thanks

Sharon

We are looking to utilize custom objects and forms to allow customers to identify their desired service type and therefore filters their business to a seperate set of subsets. Same with Metro/Regional Structure allowing them to tell us what they’re interest is via form connected to subsets of filters and funnels.

I was messing around with custom objects in a sandbox portal and it looks like you can now added custom object properties to forms. However, this will create a new custom object record on submission. I agree that there will be use cases for updating an object vs creating a new one and a mechanism is needed.

We need this for webinars. We were about to move to Sales Enterprise to enable custom objects and record all our webinar data here. Just tested creating a workflow based on date and nope. I want to get all of our data working from within Hubspot to track engagement and it drives me absolutely mad i cant make it work.

Getting ready for a salesforce / pardot conversation now.

Custom Object input for forms is something we need in order to make a form for pre-order of equipment. When will this feature be made available?

i’m pretty sure it is. I remember reading about it somewhere! You can add fields to forms and required properties with hasUniqueValue = true are used to de-dupe and update existing objects.
