Smart CRM & Sales Hub CRM

Hi, Our company is moving from Zoho to Hubspot. We manage to import deals but we can’t find option to automaticly import leads. We have exported list with all deatils (lead status, lead owner, lead name etc.) but i couldn’t find any option to import it and create leads base on those data from the file.

I would appreciate any help:)

Hi @08224,

Are you referring to contacts or leads?

If you’re referring to contacts, things are fairly straightforward and you could follow the steps outlined here: Import records for multiple objects

For leads, there is currently no way to import them directly. You would have to import contacts first, then create leads from these imported contacts. You could do so in bulk via the contact index page or using workflows: Create leads

Best regards!

Are there any plans by hubspot to make leads importable?

Hey, @DBusche :waving_hand: Thanks for the question.

I found a couple of matching ideas for your consideration:

Additionally, if you have developer resources, we offer the Leads API which allows you to create and manage leads programmatically. — Jaycee

Hi @CTran86 and thanks for your valuable feedback!
I’ve noticed a similar idea already present in our Ideas Forum: Export/Import of Leads (through the Prospecting feature).
To contribute, you can upvote the existing idea and share more details about your specific use case in the comments.
Thank you and have a lovely day!
