Ghost and HubSpot integration
OpenContact sits between Ghost and HubSpot. Capture a contact once, send it to either or both, and keep opt-outs in step where each tool supports it.
What each tool can do
| Tool | Connect with | Capabilities |
|---|---|---|
| Ghost | Admin URL + Custom Integration key | Send, Import, Member events |
| HubSpot | OAuth | Send, Import, Suppression |
Set it up
- Connect Ghost. Use Admin URL + Custom Integration key. Setup guide.
- Connect HubSpot. Use OAuth. Setup guide.
- Import your Ghost contacts into OpenContact, so there is one record per person.
- Create a sync rule. Pick a trigger, add Ghost and HubSpot as destinations, and map the fields.
- Dry-run it. See which destinations match and which fields would be sent, then switch the rule on.
Good to know
HubSpot
HubSpot contacts are global (not list-scoped), so a HubSpot destination upserts the contact into your account; you don't pick a list. Imports bring in the whole contact book.
