Written by HubSpot Support | Jul 26, 2018 4:00:00 AM

Import contacts straight from your Gmail inbox into HubSpot. Contacts will be created in HubSpot with the name (if available) and email address on their corresponding Gmail contact.

  • In your HubSpot account, navigate to Contacts > Contacts.
  • In the upper right, click Import.
  • Click Start an import.
  • Select Contacts from Gmail.
    • If you don't have a Gmail account connected to HubSpot, the option will be grayed out. Click Connect your Gmail account to connect your Gmail account to HubSpot before continuing the import process.
  • Click the Select Gmail account dropdown menu to select the Gmail account you want to import contacts from.
  • In the Domains Allowed section, select if you want to import All contacts, or All contacts excluding those with the following domain(s). To exclude contacts with a certain domain, enter the domain in the text field and click Add. This option is useful if you want to exclude internal contacts, or contacts at specific companies.
  • Enter an Import Name, then click Next.

  • Confirm your import by reviewing the email addresses of the contacts that will be imported into HubSpot. When you're done, click Begin import.
