Frequently Asked Questions
Does HubSpot integrate directly with QuickBooks? βΌ
Yes, HubSpot has a native integration with QuickBooks. It is available directly within the HubSpot app marketplace.
Is the connection between HubSpot and QuickBooks secure? βΌ
Yes. This integration typically uses OAuth 2.0, meaning you grant permission via a secure login window. You do not need to share your raw password, and you can revoke access at any time from your HubSpot security settings.
Is the sync one-way or two-way? βΌ
This is typically a one-way sync: HubSpot β QuickBooks. Changes in QuickBooks do not sync back to HubSpot.
Will existing data in HubSpot sync to QuickBooks? βΌ
Usually, no. Most native integrations are "forward-looking," meaning they only sync data created or updated *after* you activate the connection. To move historical data, you will likely need to perform a one-time CSV export/import manually.
