Video Overview
- New way of organizing property fields: This video provides an overview of how property fields in a HubSpot workflow are now categorized by type, including text, number, date, or Boolean properties.
- Adding data sources from other records: The video demonstrates how users can easily incorporate data sources from various objects or records within the CRM, including tasks, companies, and deals. This expands access to a wider range of information and criteria for optimizing workflows.

How to Pull In Data Sources and Object Records
In the fifteenth part of our ‘How to HubSpot’ series, we’re examining HubSpot’s enhanced data organization within workflows. This new structure is not just a list of properties; it’s a categorized system that separates your text, number, date, and Boolean properties, making it easier to navigate and utilize the data you need.
When you’re looking to reference tasks and can’t find the overdue ones, it’s likely because your current data view is limited to contact information. To pull in additional records or information from the CRM, you’ll need to edit the available data.
By adding a new data source, you can access a wealth of information beyond the contact level.
For instance, if you’re looking to pull in the latest task created for a contact, you can now do so with ease. This is particularly useful when you want to reference the most recently created task, rather than just an updated one, ensuring that you’re working with the most up-to-date information.
If you encounter association labels while pulling in data sources, don’t worry. HubSpot provides the flexibility to pull in company information based on specific association labels, such as ‘primary company’. This feature is invaluable when dealing with contacts associated with multiple companies, allowing you to specify which company record you want to reference.
Whether you’re pulling in data by association label or activity, HubSpot’s organized approach to data sources streamlines the process, saving you time and enhancing the accuracy of your workflows.
