[@Sami\_Sharaf](https://community.hubspot.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/149091) that is a great workaround that I have implemented with a few clients. Though definitely think it is time HubSpot made Appending a universal feature across the tools. Anyways appreciate you sharing though. @MoreLeadsPlz that is what this community is all about, a simple workaround is not a trade secret and should hardly be considered an invention. My clients dont hire me because I hide solutions from them, my clients hire me because i help them find solutions and am there to help solve all their future problems. There is no shortage of problems clients need our help with.
