Default email address for sending from CRM

sebavicto

Hi,

 

I've my admin email address and I also have several other connected accounts.

 

How can I do to set-up as default one of the "others" connected accounts instead of my Admin account?

 

Thanks in advance for anyone who can help me on this.

Hi everyone! Thank you for your feedback throughout the beta. I'm excited to announce this functionality is now Live to all portals: https://app.hubspot.com/l/product-updates/?update=13958451 !

@DanaIrvine we found and patched a bug with the beta earlier this week that I think might be what was impacting your users. Please let me know if you're still experiencing that issue where it doesn't work for some people!

Amazing context, thank you @AlaynaNelson ! I've shared that with our Help Desk PM who is exploring the idea of defaults for the support/service use case. This particular feature will probably stay a user level setting for now, but I wouldn't be surprised to see something additional that's closer to what you're describing available in the near future 🙂

Great feedback, thank you @AlaynaNelson! For your support team, are your users primarily working from the Ticket record or a dedicated workspace like Help Desk or Conversations Inbox? 

 

@DanaIrvine let's get this working for you. Have you reached out to HubSpot support yet? Feel free to send me a message here and we can take a look!

Hey @sebavicto @DyfedWallis I apologise for the delay in getting to this query. 

I'm sorry, but in this case I don't understand the question. Could you explain further?

 

Are you trying to add multiple connected accounts in addtion to your own? 
It is not possible to have this set up by default, each user must log in individually and follow these instructions to connect there inbox: https://knowledge.hubspot.com/articles/kcs_article/email-notifications/how-to-connect-your-email-inbox-to-hubspot-sales

 

Plet let me know if I have misunderstood the question.

I need this feature also.  It's been 3 years since this request was submitted...

Yes, please! Fantastic idea, would be very useful for many of us.

Agree with the above comment.  We also accidentally get emails sent from our sales@ email address instead of support@ because there is no default, and this causes duplicate tickets and confusion to be created.  Seems HS tickets caches the last "from" address selected, but if it is lost from cache (eg new browser, cache cleared) then it defaults to the first from address alphabetically.

Upvoted! This would save a lot of time and mistakes

We also need this feature.  The from address is defaulting to the connected personal email address, but we need it to default to a chosen shared address.

 

Also - would be great if we could default the from email address to be blank, so it forces users to choose the correct from address before clicking send.  We have central staff covering many locations at the moment so emails should come from appropiate location email address.

Absolutely critical feature.

We also need this but I do not think the HubSpot staff - who have responded in this thread - understand what the feature request is.

 

It's the ability to select a connected email address as the default sender, when sending emails.

Commenting for a customer here!

Setting a default email address should be added in within the settings > email integrations tab. If customers were to send out multiple emails each day, this can potentially save them a lot of time.

This would be great. We have a couple emails linked and want to be able to set a specific email as the default one that it sends from when we create the email. Instead we have to manually pick the email every time. 

RafaelCarvalho

Has anything been implemented in this regard?

PKunka

Would be useful to default  the sender based on email template and or by pipeline.  So users do not have to manually select it each time the send an email.

I escalated this to HubSpot support to get a firm answer (since there has been no update by HubSpot in this forum).

 

It looks like there is going to need to be more upvotes to get this on the radar. They said:

Agreed. This is causing us problems as we are replying (accidentally) to tickets from a different pipeline email! 

BigDaddyBear

Very much agreed. Having a default here would save us a lot of hassle!

We use the email templates to deliver quotes* to new leads, plus send a bunch of other routine messages. every time we log into hubspot, the default "from email" for these messages is the email associated with my account. I would prefer that the default email be a shared inbox that is always covered by someone, so when a customer replies we have a person ready to answer in a timely manner. Every time I log in and start sending emails, I have to remember to switch the "from" field to the shared email. 

 

*we've tried the quote tool but it doesn't quite suite our needs

This would be very useful, for me and for my clients.
