@ADerbyshire Thanks for pointing that out. I will try to figure out a solution with the team for Edge. Which version are you at, just for us to know where to test?
Hey @RHudman . We are through with the private beta. From today, it will be in public beta and available under the "Product Updates" section of your portal
We're also introducing keyboard shortcuts in the Workflows tool. This change comes along with a new menu-style navigation. If you're interested in participating in this private beta, please submit your details here. Any questions or feedback about workflow keyboard shortcuts can be sent my way 😀
Hey everyone. Global Search keyboard shortcuts & keyboard based navigation has an MVP in private beta now. We would love to get some feedback from folks in this group. If you are interested, please send me a DM with your email and portal ID and I will set you up. All we expect from beta participants is a short feedback call after using the feature for a few days.
Hi. PM for the Global Navigation, Search and Notifications here. Thanks for resurfacing this and apologies for the delay in acknowledgement. You all will be happy to know that this is in the works already. We will share more updates as things progress. 🙏
I have last seen this idea floated on the forums in 2017, but it would be good to have keyboard shortcuts - Crtl+Enter to save notes and tasks, Crt+(whatever) to create new tasks, contacts, notes. It would make things flow much easier. Hubspot even has an article about how useful it would be but the
Such a shame @scubadrew, they have something good going on here but there are so many little faults that though small, make a big difference and make it so much more tedious to use.
Frustrating that this isn't getting any traction. There are lot of idea submissions that their support team could merge together. It's watering down the votes. Right now I have to rely on TAB + SPACE to save things which works in a lot of places, but we need more shortcuts like a shortcut for search, add a contact, jump to etc.
@JoeMayall I actually think they're more thinking of keyboard commands to create a new task, email contact, etc. An example would be "Crtl+T" would open the task window on a contact to create a new task. But maybe I'm understanding the creator wrong. That's what I was hoping for.
Seriously insane that this hasn't been implemented in 3 years. The whole point of a CRM is to increase productivity and this is the simplest and easiest to implement feature to do just that.
Especially during COVID thousands of people are essentially living in hubspot. Please at least share an ETA of when keyboard shortcuts might be released. Sell it internally as "an impactful effort Hubspot can make to benefit the broader community during these difficult times"
Can I +1 this? When I googled this I saw a ton of articles from the hubspot blog about using shortcuts in social media, chrome, etc. So if the Hubspot team is a fan why don't have have these in Hubspot? I came from Pipedrive where they had shortcuts. I'd love to have some for things like compsing email, logging calls, pretty much all the "create activity" buttons.
Even if you implemented the most BASIC Window standards of CTRL A for ADD a contact and CTRL S for Save a Contact, this would make life SO much easier for us!
Also suggesting "replace as you type" Microsoft-Word-like keyboard shortcuts, similar to the snippets feature, that can be used when filling in properties in addition to the places snippets can currently be used. Basically just extending snippets to be used all over the site, in as many text-entering places as possible.
I agree that keyboard shortcuts would really accelerate our use of Hubspot. To be clear this is NOT snippets, but more what samglenn is describing. More examples:
/ for search
cntl-L for log a call
... for new contact
... for new company
... for task list
... for new email, call, task etc.
This is so important to move our users from click, click, click to power users. Many other key browser based tools manage this with ease (gsheets, gdocs, sketchup CAD, etc., etc.)
