Are you looking for different ways of connecting HubSpot & SharePoint?

Well, we already did that for you. We clicked on all the links on the first 5 to 10 pages of Google Search with the term “HubSpot SharePoint Integration”. We then studied these solutions, classified them into mutually exclusive & collectively exhaustive categories. And then, we wrote this blog.

In case you are looking to connect HubSpot with Google Drive or OneDrive instead, you might find our blog on HubSpot Google Drive Integrations or HubSpot OneDrive Integrations more interesting.

Use this guide to research all these options, zero in on your specific needs & requirements, and choose the right solution for your business.

You can read the guide freely or jump to specific sections below -

• Why is the integration needed - Are you still wondering if you even need an integration? Whether there are no free native solutions for your needs? If so, this might be a good section to start with.
• Why is this an exhaustive list - Here we talk about how we did the research and why this article could atleast be a good starting point for you.
• Applying the BIND Framework - The Bilateral Integration Discovery Framework helps narrow down your requirements by asking 2 simple, MCQ questions. Use this to quickly know where to look for the best possible solutions for yourself.
• UI, Action & Data Integrators - Here we detail out all the different apps we could find and what we could understand about how they work. These have been categorized accordingly for quick referencing.
• Community, Partners & Other Resources - Customizations are possible by partnering with official HubSpot solution providers. There are few community posts as well that talk about the problems in native solutions. This section completes the research.

Now that we have the outline of what lays ahead, let’s get started…

The simple answer to this question is that since these are 2 separate systems which don’t have any good native integration options.

• Main focus use of HubSpot: HubSpot is a cloud-based CRM designed to help align sales and marketing teams, foster sales enablement, Boost ROI and optimize inbound marketing strategies to generate more qualified leads.
• Main focus use of SharePoint: SharePoint is an online collaboration system for document management and storage by Microsoft for business teams with enhanced security features. It is highly configurable to suit niche needs.

However, both systems lack certain features & functionalities. For example, advanced file sharing functions are provided by neither and might need another app that specializes in file sharing.

There are NO native solutions available for connecting HubSpot & SharePoint. This means neither Microsoft has developed anything nor has HubSpot, to actively integrate with the other. Seeing this, the need for an external integration becomes doubly important.

We searched “HubSpot SharePoint Integration” in Google and studied every single search result that come up. We continued to do this until we stopped finding relevant results (which happens around page 5 to 6).

Moreover, while studying the results, we saw the similarities on some of the options available. This prompted us to categorize the results into the BIND Framework. This is an interesting take on SaaS integration decision making that can help you find the right solution quickly.

We discuss this framework below and then discuss the various apps available to perform the integration.

If you are unsure about your requirements or are feeling overwhelmed with so many options, you can narrow down your choices using the BIND Framework. To use this framework, you only need to answer two simple questions.

As an example, suppose you need SharePoint files synced & available in HubSpot which has prompted you to look for integration options.

Now answer these 2 questions -

You can choose between these three options. You can even choose multiple if you are confused about your requirements -

1. Do you just want to keep your data in sync? E.g., if files are uploaded to a certain site folder in SharePoint, they should be sent to the HubSpot file manager so that they are available in sales, marketing & sales hubs.
2. Or do you want automated (or manual) actionability on that data based on user actions? E.g., a HubSpot contact property should update with the link of a SharePoint file whenever a file is uploaded to a certain SharePoint site.
3. Or finally, do you want to improve the experience of your team by giving new UI elements inside HubSpot that connect your SharePoint library? E.g., giving them a file picker dialog on the HubSpot contact record through which they can pick and attach files from their SharePoint accounts to the record’s widgets.

Once you have your goal decided, answer the next question.

How much functionality exactly do you need from the integration?

You may either want to do only basic ops such as fetching document links or just keeping a few folders in sync between the HubSpot file manager and SharePoint.

On the other hand, you may also want an automation to upload a file, create a shareable link and make it available on the HubSpot record.

The first one needs only few actions to be replicated from SharePoint, however, the second one needs a much highly integrated solution.

Be careful about what your actionability requirements are. If you want document editing & sharing capabilities, don’t look for integrations that work well with syncing SharePoint sites.

Once you have a general idea of your goals & functionality requirements, and how much actionability you need, you can place them on the 2x2 matrix below, giving you a list of integrations, you should be exploring.

Scroll below the graphic to explore these integrations in detail.

UI injectors for HubSpot & SharePoint are able to inject buttons, cards, or other visible elements to your HubSpot accounts’ webpages. We found two UI injectors. These can enhance the everyday experience by providing a native SharePoint experience inside HubSpot.

Moreover, both these are valid file related apps as well. You can read more about this way of classifying file related apps here.

1 - SharePoint Cards

SharePoint has adaptive cards that act as a standardized recipe for developers to build rich, native extensions to SharePoint Pages.
