When integrating with salesforce the historical contacts that are added to HubSpot dont get given the creat date that’s logged in Salesforce. For me this should be a no brainer for such integration. In what situtation would you not want the original create date is probably the better question?

This and also the create date of the deal/opportunity! After we integration, I had to create a secondary ‘create date’ field for deals so that it maps to the actual Salesforce Opportunity deal create date to the custom HubSpot SF Create Date. Could probably do that with contacts after the fact, too.
