Bulk Edit Associated Company Property

It should be possible to bulk edit the associated company property for multiple contacts. At the moment, you need to change this one-by-one, which is unnecessarily tedious.

This idea should definitely be integrated as a standard feature. If you can associate via an import, you should be able to remove associations. It's a no-brainer!

Please add this!

Should be a simple removal from contact view at least. Eagerly awaiting the day HubSpot fixes this...

Hey @Jonno_Price,

Have you tried using Associ8? It can automatically remove associations or association labels via workflow.

I'll leave some documentation for both features below if you want to see them in action:

- Remove Associations Automatically Using Labels 
- Remove Association Labels Automatically

Let me know if you have any questions!

Best,

This would make changing associations a lot easier, since it is also not possible to change associations via workflows yet. Would be important for all object associations, not just company to contact. Also the option to remove object associations in bulk would be helpful.

This idea is almost old enough to start Kindergarten by now.

 

How exciting!

This is needed.  Doing this manually for hundreds of records is not feasible.

Hi all - just an update to say that HubSpot are working on association label editing and removal via workflows. This is currently in Beta. I've not yet tested but assuming that this could be used to solve this painpoint (and others) without needing to pay for an external app. Although you would require pro and up to use the workflows. 

In beta!In beta!

This would greatly reduce the manual work.  We've tried exporting and re-importing the list of contacts with the new company record ID but just added another company association to the contacts which made it worse to manage records.

@Jonno_Price - you win for pointing this one out. I can confirm that it does work. I made a simple workflow to apply an association label "remove_association" and then to remove the label and association by checking the box "Remove all associations between records that have this label".
