Import of contacts but missing establishing of the associated company

Hi.

I imported contacts from a spread sheet, including emails with company domain from each of the contacts. But the associated companies were not established. Is there an efficient way to get the company established based on the domains from the emails?

Hi @HFles,

If you’re just importing contact information, HubSpot will only create companies automatically based on the email domain if this setting is enabled: Automatically create and associate companies with contacts

Keep in mind that enabling this feature will affect all records in your CRM, not just the recent imports. Make sure to review your data thoroughly before making this decision as there is no reverse-button.

Without this setting enabled, you would have to import contacts and companies at the same time, two objects instead of one: https://knowledge.hubspot.com/import-and-export/set-up-your-import-file?hubs_content=knowledge.hubspot.com/import-and-export/import-objects&hubs_content-cta=Set%20up%20your%20import%20files%20#example-files

If you do want to import two objects, the easiest way to include the mandatory company fields would be to extract the email domain into a separate column and map that as the company domain name (Company property) during import.

Best regards!

Thanks
