Automate CSV imports into HubSpot without the mess. Powered by n8n. Supercharged by Pollup AI.

Who’s this for?

This workflow is perfect for Ops-minded folks in Customer Success, Marketing, and Sales – especially if you’re juggling CSV lists, CRM updates, and team-wide reporting. Whether you're a CS ops lead syncing product usage, or a RevOps manager updating contact records, this will save you hours.

🧠 Why it matters

Manually importing CSVs into HubSpot is a headache: ❌ Copy-paste errors ❌ Mismatched fields ❌ Wasted time formatting every upload This workflow does the heavy lifting for you: ✅ Pulls fields dynamically from your HubSpot instance ✅ Preps and maps CSV data in minutes ✅ Syncs with Google Sheets to keep your source of truth aligned

🔄 What the workflow actually does

  1. Pulls live field names from HubSpot’s API (no guesswork)
  2. Indexes and organizes your CSV for import
  3. Processes & transforms raw data (optional filters, cleanup, etc.)
  4. Dynamically maps CSV fields to HubSpot fields
  5. Executes the upload and logs results

⚙️ How to get started

Prerequisites:

  • HubSpot private app token
  • Google Sheets API credentials
  • Access to an n8n instance (cloud or self-hosted)

Setup in 3 steps:

  • Import the JSON into your n8n
  • Connect your HubSpot and Sheets accounts
  • Upload a CSV through the built-in form — you’re live 🎉

✏️ Make it yours

  • Add filters (e.g., remove duplicates, format fields)
  • Add more HubSpot objects to match your use case
  • Trigger automation via webhook, schedule, or custom input

Works beautifully with other Pollup AI flows – so you can scale CS ops with less stress!
