Registration form linking with self-served Login to the platform

[Eugene7]

Hi dear team, 

I'm working on integrating Hubspot for a self-served platform which serves advertisers.

In our regular flow, we allow advertisers to register (simple registration - Name, email & password) and instantly access our platform after clicking the verification URL in the email. 

Now we decided to gather all leads thru HubSpot forms to collect data in CRM, but faced with an issue, that we can't link it to self serve platform. What is needed:

1. In registration form our client has to create a password;

2. Answer all additional Qs (name, email, etc.);

3. Get verification email with an activation URL from our platform;

4. Click (activate) and login to his new account;

Did anyone experience a similar issue in the past? And had it been resolved? 

Thank you in advance.

Eugene

Hi @Eugene7,

Could you continue to use your old forms and process, but then add an extra step of also submitting those submissions through our Forms API? You'll need to include only certain information like name and email, since the password would be considered sensitive information and violates our terms of use. I'd point you to our legal documentation for that: https://legal.hubspot.com/terms-of-service.

Here's the documentation for our form submission endpoint: https://developers.hubspot.com/docs/methods/forms/submit_form_v3. You could have the data enter into your external system and then from there, send over the email and name, which would create / update contact records.
