💰 The Hubspot integration is only available on our business plan.
You can integrate Vaam with Hubspot to get video stats in your CRM. Once you've configured the integration we'll send data about opens, views and conversions to the customer card of the viewer.
You need a Vaam Business account to integrate with Hubspot.
Configuring the Hubspot integration
Open up your integration settings and click the button that says "Click here to connect your Hubspot Account". This will redirect you to Hubspot where you have to log in and select the account to connect (if you have multiple). Once you've completed all steps on Hubspot you will return back to Vaam and your Hubspot integration is configured.
This is what your settings page will look like once the Hubspot integration is configured.
Using the Hubspot integration
Once you have configured the Hubspot integration, it will automatically send stats to your CRM when we can identify the viewer. This identification can be done in two ways:
The viewer is logged in to Vaam. (If you're using Vaam to communicate with external customers, this is no a likely scenario.)
You have appended viewer identification to your share link. See the section below for a guide.
Adding viewer identification to the share link
The easiest way to add tracking information to the share link is to use the share modal. Open it up and add your recipient's email address in the viewer tracking field (1). Once the green checkmark (2) shows up we've added the tracking information. Click the "Copy for email" button (3) to copy the linked preview, which now includes tracking information.
If you have the Chrome extension installed we'll also add tracking information to all links sent via Hubspots email editor. Copy the Vaam preview as you always do and paste it into an email from the Hubspot email editor. We'll detect the Vaam link and add tracking information. You will see a confirmation about this in the lower-left corner in Hubspot.
Technical details
The viewer information is added by appending a query parameter to the share link. For example, the share link https://app.vaam.io/share/123456 with tracking information will look like this: https://app.vaam.io/share/123456?v=john%40volvo.se. When that link is opened, we'll pick up the email address from the URL and use it to parse and send information to Hubspot.
