Overview

This guide walks you through connecting your HubSpot CRM to Spectacle so you can measure marketing performance by actual revenue and customer outcomes rather than just leads and website activity.

Why connect HubSpot to your attribution

Most attribution tools stop tracking at the initial conversion—when someone fills out a form or starts a trial. For B2B companies, this misses the most important part of the story: which marketing activities actually drive paying customers.

HubSpot contains the real narrative of your customer journey. Contacts become marketing qualified leads, progress to sales qualified opportunities, and eventually close as revenue. By connecting this CRM data to your marketing attribution, you can see which campaigns influence actual customers rather than just curious visitors.

Connect to Hubspot

How the integration works

The integration creates a secure, read-only connection between HubSpot and Spectacle. No data gets written back to your CRM—Spectacle only pulls information to enrich your attribution reports.

Identity resolution and session stitching

When HubSpot contacts sync to Spectacle, the system automatically matches email addresses to existing anonymous website sessions. This connects every anonymous page view, ad click, and content download to the actual person who eventually became a customer.

Account-based attribution

Spectacle groups individual contacts by their HubSpot company associations. When multiple people from the same company interact with your marketing, all those touchpoints get credited toward eventual deal outcomes. This is crucial for B2B attribution where purchasing decisions involve multiple stakeholders.

Revenue tracking

Deal amounts and close dates flow from HubSpot into Spectacle, enabling true ROI calculations. Instead of measuring campaign success by lead volume, you can see actual revenue generated by each marketing channel and campaign.

Key Features

Session Stitching

Connects anonymous website sessions to known HubSpot contacts using email addresses and tracking identifiers. This creates complete user journeys from first visit to deal closure.

Company-Level Attribution

Groups individual contacts by HubSpot company associations, enabling account-based attribution reporting. All campaign touchpoints that influence any company contact are credited toward deal outcomes.

Revenue Tracking

Pulls deal amounts and close dates from HubSpot to calculate true campaign ROI. Attribution reports show revenue generated, not just lead volume. When "Track Payments" is enabled, Spectacle tracks these payment events:

  • Payment Succeeded
    • Tracks positive revenue when payments process successfully
  • Payment Failed
    • Records failed payment attempts (no revenue impact)
  • Payment Refunded
    • Tracks negative revenue for refunded payments
  • Dispute Won
    • Maintains revenue when disputes are resolved favourably
  • Dispute Lost
    • Tracks negative revenue when disputes are lost

Advanced Segmentation

Uses any HubSpot property as a filter dimension in Spectacle. Create audiences based on lifecycle stage, company size, deal value, or custom properties.

You'll need an active HubSpot account with contacts, companies, and deals data, plus a Spectacle account with integration permissions.

Data Sync Method

Webhook-Based Integration

Spectacle uses HubSpot webhooks to monitor changes in real-time. When contacts update, deals progress, or companies change, HubSpot automatically notifies Spectacle to pull the updated information.

This webhook-based approach ensures your attribution data stays current without unnecessary bulk syncing or API usage. Changes appear in Spectacle within minutes of occurring in HubSpot.

Currently, we are able to ingest data from any of the following objects:

  • Contacts - Updates trigger immediate sync of contact data
  • Companies - Company changes are captured in real-time
  • Deals - Deal stage changes and updates are tracked instantly
  • Associations - Changes in contact-company and deal relationships are monitored
  • Revenue Events - Payment events are tracked when "Track HubSpot payments" is enabled

How It Works

When any change occurs in these monitored objects, HubSpot sends a webhook notification to Spectacle, which then pulls the updated contact data and any related information. This ensures:

  • Real-time data synchronization
  • Minimal API usage (only pulling data when changes occur)
  • Always up-to-date attribution data
  • No unnecessary bulk syncing

Privacy and security

The integration requires only read-only access to your HubSpot data. Spectacle never writes information back to your CRM, and all data is encrypted both in transit and at rest.

You can disconnect the integration at any time, and data retention follows your standard Spectacle account settings. The connection respects all existing HubSpot permission structures and security policies.

Data Handling

  • All data is encrypted in transit and at rest
  • No data is written back to HubSpot
  • Data retention follows your Spectacle account settings
  • Integration can be disconnected at any time
