Building a Workflow

​
1. Create Workflow in app

​
2. Adding the Trigger

To add a trigger for a Workflow in Cobalt, you need to select details about the Trigger like the Type and which trigger to be implemented.

To add a Trigger, follow these steps:

  • Click on the Start node to add a trigger.
  • In the right side, select the Type and the Trigger and click on the Add Trigger button.

For this Workflow, we have created an Event Contact Create which contains the payload like the first name, last name, email etc. about the event sent by you to HubSpot.

​
3. Adding the HubSpot Action

  • From Actions, add a HubSpot node to the workflow.
  • Click on the node and select an Action from the Choose an Action dropdown menu and click on Save.

Before clicking on Save, make sure that you have entered data for all the mandatory fields whichever required.

  • Connect the two nodes by clicking on + button on the Start node and dragging the arrow to the HubSpot node.

​
4. Publishing the Workflow

  • To publish the workflow, click on the Publish button in the top, Select Environments of the Workflow and click on Publish.

​
Enabling the Workflow

To enable a workflow, end user or a Linked Account needs to Toggle On the Workflow after connecting with the application.

  • Navigate to the Linked Account in which the Workflow needs to be enabled by getting its’ Hosted URL.
  • Go to the Hosted URL and select HubSpot from Manage your Integrations list.
  • Click on the Connect button, review the permissions and allow them for a successful connection.
  • After a successful connection, you can see the Configure section in the HubSpot Application page.
  • Enable the Workflow Sync Contacts by turning the toggle On and click on Save.

​
Fire an App Event

Lastly, we’ll fire an App Event whenever a contact is created in your app by using the Workflow.

  • Navigate to Try API in Cobalt.
  • Choose the Linked Account created to test the workflow, select the Event and HubSpot as the Application.
  • Click on the Fire Event button in the top right.

Congratulations! We have successfully built a HubSpot integration that syncs new contacts from your app to the Linked Account’s HubSpot.
