# How HubSpot and Hublead connect

## Discover how HubSpot and Hublead work together

### **What you’ll learn**

In this article, you’ll understand:

- What a **Hub ID** is and how to find it
- How Hublead maps **one Hublead organization** to **one HubSpot portal**
- Why some users may (or may not) appear in the Hublead dashboard
- What happens if you connect Hublead to the **wrong Hub ID**
- What changes when your HubSpot portal (Hub ID) changes

 

### **Core concept: 1 Hublead organization = 1 HubSpot portal (Hub ID)**

Hublead works at the **organization level**, not at the individual user level.

- Each **HubSpot account ID (Hub ID)** corresponds to **one** Hublead organization.
- Hublead does not merge multiple HubSpot portals into one Hublead organization.

### What is a Hub ID?

A **Hub ID** is the unique numeric identifier of your HubSpot portal—think of it as your HubSpot “account number.”

### How to find your Hub ID in HubSpot

You can find your Hub ID in two common places:

1. **In the URL**
   
   Example: `https://app.hubspot.com/contacts/1234567/`
   
   → `1234567` is the Hub ID
2. **In your HubSpot account menu**

- Click your profile picture (top-right)
- Next to your account name, you’ll see something like: `My Company (1234567)`
  
  → that number is your Hub ID

---

#### What happens when you connect Hublead to HubSpot

When you first connect Hublead to HubSpot, Hublead detects the Hub ID and:

- If it’s the first time Hublead sees that Hub ID → it creates a new **Hublead organization**
- If that Hub ID already exists in Hublead → it adds you as a user in the **existing organization**

This is why the Hub ID selection is a key step: it determines which Hublead organization you join.

---

#### Example: same email, multiple HubSpot portals

Suppose `alex@company.com` has access to two HubSpot portals:

- Hub ID **111**
- Hub ID **222**

If Alex connects Hublead to Hub ID **111**, Alex becomes a user in the Hublead organization for **111**.

If Alex later connects Hublead to Hub ID **222**, Alex becomes a user in a **separate Hublead organization**, with its own:

- Users list
- Seats / licenses
- Subscription plan
- Dashboard data

---

#### Why a user appears (or does not appear) in the Hublead dashboard

A user appears in the Hublead dashboard for a given HubSpot portal when they:

1. Install the Hublead Chrome extension (or use the Hublead app entry flow)
2. Log in
3. Connect HubSpot and select the **correct Hub ID**

Hublead then:

- Detects the Hub ID
- Associates the user with the Hublead organization for that Hub ID
- Lists them under **Hublead Users**

### First troubleshooting step (most common issue)

If a user is not showing in your Hublead dashboard, verify:

**Which HubSpot portal (Hub ID) did they connect to?**

In most cases, they either:

- connected the **wrong Hub ID**, or
- did not complete the HubSpot connection step.

You can share this guideline for troubleshooting: [Trouble connecting](https://knowledge.hublead.io/en/trouble-connecting?hsLang=en)

---

#### What if our HubSpot portal changes?

Because Hublead is tied to your HubSpot portal ID, a change of Hub ID effectively means a **new Hublead organization**.

If you migrate to a new HubSpot portal:

- Users, seats, and dashboards will be associated with the **new Hub ID**
- You will typically need to: 
    - contact support for migration guidance
    - connect Hublead to the new portal
    - have users connect again to the correct Hub ID
    - reconfigure seats and user access for the new organization

---

#### What if I want to change the email associated with my Hublead user?

Because Hublead mirrors HubSpot users, changing the email is handled by creating a new HubSpot user identity.

Recommended process:

1. Create a new user in HubSpot with the new email
2. Log out and log back in to both:
   
     - Hublead dashboard
     - Hublead Chrome extension
       
       using the new email
3. In Hublead, remove the old user from the team list (HubSpot teams / user list)

This is the reliable method to align the Hublead user identity with the new email.

---

#### FAQ

**Q: Why do I see some colleagues in HubSpot but not in Hublead?**

Usually, because they haven’t connected Hublead to HubSpot yet, or they connected to a different Hub ID.

**Q: Can Hublead merge data across multiple HubSpot portals?**

No. Each HubSpot portal (Hub ID) maps to its own Hublead organization. Data and users are isolated per Hub ID.

**Q: What is the Hub ID again?**

It is the unique numeric ID of your HubSpot portal. You can find it in the HubSpot URL or next to the account name in the top-right account menu.
