How can I automatically create a company in an automation workflow?

[smk]

I can create a deal, ticket, or task, but how do I create a company?

Hi @smk 

Unfortunately, it is not possible to create contact or company records in workflows. 

Companies can either be created automatically by HubSpot, created manually, or imported. 

Hope this helps.

@Phil_Vallender @smk you can actually create companies using the create record workflow action now.

Hi, I am tryint to use the above in a workflow. Would it not just create a company based on the email address or company name field in the forms? Thanks, Anna

That's a bit incomprehensible.  But I sincerely appreciate your quick answer.  Thanks.

We solved it with a Zap - creating a smart list of individuals without companies who were created using a certain form and then using Zapier to create a company when a new contact was added to the list.

Pretty new, but you can now create company records within a workflow.
