Hi,

Some one help me, i created my account in Hub spot trail version and created API-Key

How to integrate Hubspot with ServiceNow opportunity table

The short answer is:

The long answer is:

To integrate your HubSpot trial account’s opportunity data with the ServiceNow opportunity table, you’ll need a mechanism to transfer information between the two systems, and since you have the HubSpot API-Key, you’re already on the right track for authentication.

The core of the solution involves one system pushing data and the other receiving it, or a third party orchestrating the exchange.

You can set up HubSpot to push data using its API or webhooks when an event occurs, like an opportunity stage change.

Conversely, you’ll use the ServiceNow REST API to receive this data, which will then be parsed and used to create or update records in the appropriate opportunity table, such as the sn_customerservice_opportunity table if you’re using Customer Service Management, or another custom table.

An excellent and cheap solution involves using a server-side setup to act as the intermediary, which provides superior control and reliability over client-side methods.

This setup leverages HubSpot’s API/webhooks to send data securely and in real-time.

For instance, you could configure a HubSpot workflow to trigger a webhook to a specific endpoint whenever an opportunity is created or updated.

This endpoint would be part of your server-side solution, perhaps hosted on Google Cloud Platform or utilizing a service like Stape for server-side Google Tag Manager.

Using server-side tagging allows you to capture user behavior and crucial opportunity events – not just the standard events like Product View or Add to Cart – but also custom events you define in HubSpot, and then process and enrich this data before it ever reaches ServiceNow.

In this model, Google Tag Manager (GTM) is configured in a server container (using a service like Stape or your own Google Cloud Platform environment) to receive the inbound webhook payload from HubSpot.

GTM’s server container can then process this incoming data.

The advantage of using a server container is that it allows for robust data transformation, cleaning, and security before the data is finally forwarded.

The server container would then use a custom or third-party client to call the ServiceNow REST API, sending the processed data to the correct opportunity table endpoint.

The use of the ServiceNow REST API ensures secure and direct manipulation of the records.

This entire architecture is highly scalable, incredibly flexible for customizing the data being sent, and is very cost-effective since it primarily uses the built-in functionalities of HubSpot’s webhooks, the standard GTM container, and the free tier or low-cost cloud services like Google Cloud Platform or a similar service like Stape, which specializes in simplifying server-side GTM deployment.
