How to Import Contacts from HubSpot into a Brightcall Project

Updated this week

Step-by-Step Instructions:

1. Go to Your Project in Brightcall

  • Open the Brightcall dashboard

  • Navigate to the specific project you want to import contacts into

2. Start the Import Process

  • Hover over the “Add Contacts” button

  • Select “Add from CRM”

3. Select Your CRM

  • Choose HubSpot from the CRM list

  • Click “Next”

4. Configure Import Settings

You will see several fields — here's how to handle them:

Field

What to Do

List

Select the HubSpot List you want to import contacts from

Polling interval

Choose how often to check for new contacts (e.g., hourly or daily) — or leave it blank to only import once

CRM link column

Choose the column where Brightcall will store the HubSpot link (this is required)

Remove contacts not from the list

Enable this only if you want Brightcall to delete any contacts not in the selected HubSpot list

Sync until

Set a date when the import should stop (this is mandatory)

5. Map Your Fields

  • Match your Brightcall fields to the corresponding HubSpot fields

    • For example:

      • Brightcall First Name → HubSpot First Name

      • Brightcall Phone → HubSpot Phone Number

      • Brightcall Email → HubSpot Email

  • This ensures the data goes into the right place

6. Save and Start Syncing

  • Click “Save”

  • The sync will now start based on the schedule you chose

Best Practices

  • Set Polling Interval to hourly for fast-moving campaigns

  • The CRM Link Column helps with tracking and updates — always select one

  • Only use “Remove contacts not from the list” if you want Brightcall to fully mirror the HubSpot list

  • Don’t forget to set a proper Sync Until date
