If the user enters an email address with an invalid domain the record is stored in type form but it is not transferred to Hubspot.
You can create a contact in hubspot with the same email address...but somehow these contacts with invalid emails are getting dropped between type form and hubspot.
Hi @JoeWho. The issue is exactly what Des has described. Hubspot uses email validation on their side, while Typeform doesnβt. We simply leverage Hubspotβs APIs to create contacts in their CRM when a typeform receives a response. Hubspotβs API has the ability to reject a specific contact if certain conditions (such as a valid email being present) arenβt met.
Hi @JoeWho Thanks for stopping by the community! I havenβt heard of this yet. By invalid email, do you mean if they typed something like: hello@gnail.com instead of hello@gmail.com? Or any particular types of invalid email addresses youβre seeing not pull through to Hubspot?
Yes an email without a real domain. so I imagine gnail.com doesnt actually exist. I dont know if the email was glitch or maybe website was the problem but for the fake ones the record was not making it across.
it sounds like Hubspot might be using some sort of validation on the other side - neverbounce or something like that to validate the domainβ¦ It might not be a typeform issue but a βdata validationβ rule on the other side of the fence..
i would suggest checking with Hubspot support as well..
