#1 Default Field Mapping 90% likely

📋 How to Diagnose

  1. 1. Review Typeform integration settings.
  2. 2. Is 'Lifecycle Stage' mapped to a static value 'Lead'?
  3. 3. HubSpot native sync will overwrite existing values if mapped explicitly.

✓ Solution

Remove the Lifecycle Stage mapping in Typeform. Use a HubSpot Workflow: 'If Form Submission = Typeform AND Lifecycle Stage is Unknown, set to Lead'.
