Idea:
This idea is for teams using the HubSpot Sales Outlook Add-in who want to simplify the process of adding additional associations when logging emails.
Right now, the associations panel displays every available object type, including objects that a company may never use for email logging. For example, some accounts see objects like Carts or Campaigns, even though these will never be associated with logged emails. This results in an unnecessarily long scroll list that makes it harder for users to quickly find the objects they actually need.
I propose adding an option for admins to disable specific object types from appearing in the associations list in the Outlook add-in. This would go beyond customizing the default associations for email recipients and would specifically allow certain object types to be hidden entirely.
Example:
Current situation:
- A user opens the associations panel
- The list includes many unused object types (for example Carts or Campaigns)
- The user has to scroll through a long list to find the relevant objects
Suggested improvement:
- Admin disables unused object types in the settings
- Users only see relevant objects in the associations list
- The list becomes shorter, cleaner and easier to work with
This would reduce friction for users, improve logging efficiency and allow admins to tailor the add-in experience to their organization’s actual needs.
