The HubSpot Zoom Integration, Set Up Properly

For teams running meetings and webinars on Zoom: which of the Zoom apps for HubSpot you need, what each plan unlocks, how webinar registrants and attendees reach your contacts, and why some of them don't.

What is the HubSpot Zoom integration?

It is HubSpot's own Zoom app. It adds Zoom links to HubSpot meetings and scheduling pages, logs meetings to the participants' records, syncs webinar registrants and attendees into contacts and marketing events, and can bring meeting recordings and transcripts into HubSpot. It works on every HubSpot plan; webinars need Zoom's webinar add-on.

Zoom has several apps for HubSpot, built by two companies, and they're easy to confuse. This guide explains which one does what, based on HubSpot's and Zoom's documentation as of October 2026, and focuses on the part that matters most for marketing: getting webinar attendance into HubSpot reliably.

Which Zoom app for HubSpot do you need?

For meetings and webinars, HubSpot's Zoom app. For calling, Zoom Phone for HubSpot, built by Zoom. For a Zoom contact center, Zoom Contact Center for HubSpot. For multi-session events on Zoom Events, Zoom's own Zoom Events app. HubSpot's in-meeting app for Zoom Meetings is separate again and only adds a HubSpot panel inside the meeting.

What do you need before connecting Zoom?

A HubSpot Super Admin or a user with App Marketplace permissions, and a Zoom admin. Webinar sync needs Zoom's webinar add-on, recordings need cloud recording with audio transcripts on, and the workflow action that registers contacts for a webinar needs HubSpot Professional or Enterprise. Each user should also connect their own Zoom user.

  • One Zoom account: a HubSpot account connects to one Zoom account, one tenant.
  • Each user connects: if a user doesn't connect their own Zoom user, their meetings use the Zoom link of the person who installed the integration, which can cause meeting conflicts.
  • Personal Meeting IDs aren't supported for meeting links.
  • Zoom Phone needs a Zoom Workplace license that includes Phone, or a standalone Zoom Phone plan, plus admin access in both tools.

How do Zoom webinars sync to HubSpot?

Registrants and attendees are matched to contacts by primary email, and new people become contacts. Each webinar becomes a HubSpot marketing event, and contacts' timelines show when they joined and left, with attendance duration. Webinars only sync if they're set to, so turn on syncing new webinars by default in the integration's settings.

Rules from HubSpot's documentation that decide whether your data is complete:

  • Registration fields: required fields on the Zoom registration form must be limited to first name, last name and email, or registrations fail to sync.
  • Exclude your team: add your company domain under the integration's contact exclusions, so staff don't become contacts.
  • Segment on marketing events: since January 2025, the old Zoom contact properties can't segment new activity. Use marketing event filters, such as attended or registered, instead.
  • Recurring webinars: the "total number of Zoom webinars attended" property isn't updated for repeat attendance at the same recurring webinar.

On Professional or Enterprise, the "Add contact to Zoom webinar" workflow action registers contacts from a HubSpot form or list, so you can run registration in HubSpot and still host in Zoom. Feed attendance into your lead scoring rather than routing every attendee to sales.

How do Zoom meetings and recordings work in HubSpot?

Choose Zoom as the video link on a HubSpot scheduling page, or as the location when scheduling from a record, and HubSpot adds a Zoom link. Meetings log as activities on the participants' records. With recording sync on, recordings and transcripts attach to the meeting record; since 31 August 2026, recorded meetings no longer also create a call record.

The recording has to stay in Zoom's cloud for HubSpot to sync it, and recording links in HubSpot require a login. Past meetings don't sync on their own; they can be synced by meeting ID. If you report on calls, check reports that counted Zoom recordings as calls before August 2026, since those are now meetings.

How do you set up the HubSpot Zoom integration, in order?

Install the Zoom app from the HubSpot Marketplace with a Zoom admin, then set global settings for meeting and webinar sync, recordings and contact exclusions. Ask each user to connect their own Zoom user. Set up webinar registration fields, test with a small webinar, and check the marketing event and contacts before the first big one.

  1. 01 InstallMarketplace, Zoom admin allows
  2. 02 Global settingsMeetings, webinars, recordings
  3. 03 ExclusionsYour company domain
  4. 04 UsersEach connects own Zoom
  5. 05 RegistrationName and email only required
  6. 06 TestSmall webinar, check the event
The setup in six stages. Each one is described in the list below.
  1. Install from the HubSpot Marketplace (search for Zoom), sign in with a Zoom admin and click Allow.
  2. Set global settings under Settings, Integrations, Connected Apps, Zoom: meeting sync, webinar sync for all or selected users, syncing new webinars by default, and recordings.
  3. Add contact exclusions for your company domain.
  4. Ask users to connect their own Zoom user in the integration's user settings.
  5. Set registration on webinars, with only first name, last name and email required.
  6. Test with a small internal-plus-guest webinar and check the marketing event, attendance and contacts.

Why are Zoom attendees or meetings missing in HubSpot?

Most often Zoom had no email for the person: guests who join without registering, or meeting participants who aren't signed in. Other causes are extra required registration fields, a webinar not set to sync, a registrant using an email HubSpot holds only as a secondary email, or a webinar created inside Zoom Events, which needs Zoom's own app.

  • No email: turn on webinar registration, or "Only authenticated users can join" for meetings, so Zoom captures email addresses.
  • Direct link joins: HubSpot notes that, after a Zoom API change, people joining by a direct link may not be tracked.
  • Wrong Zoom link on meetings: the user hasn't connected their own Zoom user.

HubSpot Zoom checklist

✓
Right Zoom app chosen
✓
Webinar add-on confirmed
✓

✓
New webinars sync by default
✓
Company domain excluded
✓
Every user connected
✓
Registration on, few required fields
✓
Segments built on marketing events
✓
Cloud recording and transcripts on

Tested with a small webinar

Key takeaway: HubSpot's Zoom app is free to connect, but webinar data is only as complete as Zoom's emails. Require registration, keep required fields minimal, exclude your own domain and segment on marketing events.

Frequently asked questions

Is the HubSpot Zoom integration free?

The HubSpot-built Zoom app works with every HubSpot plan, including free, when we checked in October 2026. Some features need more: syncing webinars needs Zoom's webinar add-on, the Add contact to Zoom webinar workflow action needs a HubSpot Professional or Enterprise plan, and recordings need Zoom cloud recording.

How do Zoom webinar attendees get into HubSpot?

The integration matches registrants and attendees to HubSpot contacts by their primary email address and creates contacts for new people. Each webinar becomes a marketing event, and the contact's timeline shows when they joined and left. Contacts that were deleted from HubSpot aren't recreated.

Why aren't some Zoom webinar attendees syncing to HubSpot?

Usually because Zoom has no email for them, which happens when guests join without registering, or because they registered with an email that's only a secondary email in HubSpot. Turn on webinar registration, keep required registration fields to first name, last name and email, and check that the webinar is set to sync.

Can you connect more than one Zoom account to HubSpot?

No. HubSpot's documentation says only one Zoom account, one Zoom tenant, can connect to a HubSpot account. Within it, each user should connect their own Zoom user, or meetings fall back to the Zoom link of the person who installed the integration.

Do Zoom recordings show in HubSpot?

Yes, if you turn on recording sync and your Zoom account has cloud recording and audio transcripts on. Since 31 August 2026, recorded meetings create a meeting record in HubSpot rather than a call record and a meeting record. The recording must stay in Zoom's cloud to sync.
