Workflow to populate company name

[ARavera]

Hi everyone!

I'm searching for some advice on how to accomplish the following:

I have a Linkedin campaign with a form that sends the information directly to hubspot. The thing is, the "company name" field is populated in a different field that the standad for hubspot. Is there a way to create a workflow where I say:

- Grab the information form this field (the company field form linkedin) and populate the same value into this other field (the Hubspot's traditional company field), when that field is empty.

Thank you, I hoped I explained myself correctly!

@ARavera Yep, sounds pretty clear.

Go to Automation > Workflows and create a new one - From Scratch.

Select 'Contact Based' in the left hand side and the 'Blank Workflow' radio button.

In the trigger select 'Contact Properties' and search for the property populated by Linkedin.

Select the property and set the trigger as 'Is Known' 

Click the plus icon to add a new step in the workflow.

In the side panel scroll down to find 'Copy Property Value'

Select it and then select 'Contact In this Workflow' followed by the 'Value to copy drop down'

Search for the LinkedIn property and select it.

Then select the 'Target Object' as Contact and search for the target property in the drop down below

Click save and that's the nuts and bolts of the workflow - ready for you to review and turn on.

You can do the same to update the corresponding company property if required.

Any help?

Hi @ARavera,

Before setting up a workflow, I'd recommend reviewing this resource on LinkedIn Lead Gen Form field mappings. You might be able to resolve this quickly without a workflow: https://knowledge.hubspot.com/ads/lead-ads-field-mappings-to-hubspot#default-linkedin-lead-gen-form-...

If you can't fix the issue that way, a contact-based workflow would look like this:

Hope this helps!
