Many organizations around the world need a business automation tool that allows business promotions and manages marketing efforts by controlling sales processes. One such platform is Hubspot, leading inbound marketing, sales, CRM, and customer success growth stack.

Use-Case

You have chosen Document360 as your Knowledge base platform. You are using Hubspot for managing your customer support tickets. There is a need that when a new support ticket is created in Hubspot, then an automated task should check whether their internal knowledge base holds any related article to resolve that support ticket; Otherwise, a new knowledge base article is to be created to fix the knowledge gap.

Currently, there is no direct integration option available between Hubspot and Document360 from either of the platforms.

How will you integrate Hubspot and Document360?

As a workaround, you can use Zapier integration to bridge this gap. By connecting Hubspot and Document360 on Zapier, you can easily facilitate the content flow between these platforms.

Ensure that you have logged into your Zapier account.
