Export Hubspot contacts directly into iPhone contacts

[AmitM12]

Hi all!

I am trying to see if there is a way to sync my HUBSPOT contacts with my offline iPhone contacts so that all of my HUBSPOT contacts appear in my iPhone contacts app.

I have had no luck to this date, however wondering if anyone on the forum has been able to do this?

Thank you in advance!

Hi @AmitM12,

I'd recommend using HubSpot's data sync app for iCloud for this. This will "sync contacts between iCloud and HubSpot without manual data entry or messy, time-consuming imports." When records are created or updated in either app, that information will be automatically shared with the other one.

Best regards!

It is possible with HubSpot's newly launced Operations Hub. Check here: HubSpot Community - Sync contacts with iphone contacts - HubSpot Community

Hope this helps!

Ugh! I keep getting:

Couldn't connect to iCloud .....

Error details

User error on remote account for appId=#236653"

reason="AUTH_FAILED" message=""

I logged in to iCloud.com and no problems. Yes I have 2FA. Corporate says there is no restriction on the iCloud. What could be causing this error?

Thank you @DianaGomez .

Interestingly I found my answer this morning from the Apple website when I was trying to help our IT team find a solution:

“App-specific passwords are not supported with Managed Apple ID created through Business Manager. You will simply not see the option to create an app-specific password even if you do have two-factor authentication turned on.”  https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/128251

Fantastic @GFair 😊

Best,

Follow up: Reading another experience I see the App-Specific passwords, and my iCloud corporate account does not have that. Could that be the interference?

Hi, I think this app seems like a great option. But I can't get it to work. Do you think it's becouse I use my private icloud account? Becouse that is all a have

@AGlemme Hi, I just ran into the same issue... I mistakenly assumed that the "App-specific password" meant your Apple ID password. That is NOT the case.

You have to create a new app-specific password from your Apple account by following the instructions here: Using app-specific passwords (Under 'How to generate an app-specific password')

Once you have created the password, use your same Apple ID username/email and the newly-created  app-specific password. Follow the prompts and you should be all set!
