I’m working on importing contacts and associated information from our records into Hubspot. We have many contacts with notes attached to their records that span across multiple lines. For instance, a physical address was documented across 2-3 lines. How can I handled these imports of notes into HubSpot so they are legible when you look at the Contact Notes in HubSpot?

i.e. I don’t want a note to read as:

John Doe 12345 Somewhere St Lost, NW 56789

I want it to appear in the note as:

John Doe

12345 Somewhere St

Lost, NW 56789

Hi!

Hubspot note imports actually read code, so if you just add \<br\> where you’d like a line break, that should do the trick!

Also works with \<strong\>Bold\</strong\> and other tags.
