Hi all! I'm Jeff, from the HubSpot CRM product team. We just released a new beta for import we're calling "Skip if known" (exact name of feature TBD by smarter people). This new option makes it possible to prevent overwrites from your imports if the property value on a specific record is already set.
For example, if the name property on a Contact record is set as "Jeff Vincent", and the name column in the import with the corresponding email is "Jerf Bincent", checking this box means the HubSpot value won't be overwritten.
For customers updating the data in their CRM through imports AND the UI, we hope this update helps you maintain more control over your data!
To get access while in beta, ask your HubSpot contact to add the "Skip if known" beta to your portal. We'll be going live to all soon.
Having the option to not overwrite the existing contact properties would be very useful, and we're surprised it isn't already an option. We wouldn't use it every import, but there are instances when it's needed.
