How to lock a property from being overwritten?

SOLVE

Hi all! 

 

I'm a previous Marketo user, current Hubspot user, and in Marketo we have the option to "lock a property", i.e. disallow the property from being overwritten by ANYTHING -- API, form submission, CRM integration, whatever (unless an admin does it). 

 

My question is: how do I replicate this in Hubspot? For example, I want to keep my First Conversion property and my MQL Date property from EVER being overwritten/updated. 

 

Thanks so much!

You are now able to set the permissions for properties.

There's a way of stopping the field being updated via forms and bots, but I'm not sure you can stop team members who aren't admins from changing individual fields. 

I'd be interested to know this for sure too. It's not come up as an issue for me yet.
