Mirror records between tools: HubSpot, scheduled

Runs on a schedule across HubSpot, PostgreSQL and Gmail, routes each kind of record down its own branch. Built for contact sync, around a "Map to Canonical Schema" step, in 18 documented nodes.

Mirror records between tools with HubSpot and PostgreSQL for your team. An original, ready-to-import n8n workflow built around the 'Two-System Sync' pattern for sales & CRM. It runs on a schedule and orchestrates 18 nodes across HubSpot, PostgreSQL, Gmail. Retry-on-fail is enabled on external calls. Import the JSON, add your credentials, and adapt the parameters. What used to take a morning now runs on its own.

Key benefits

  • Keeps HubSpot and PostgreSQL in step for contact sync, without anyone re-typing a row
  • A failed HubSpot or PostgreSQL call is retried rather than dropped, at any of the 18 nodes in this contact-sync build
  • Branches rejoin before HubSpot, so a contact-sync run reports once rather than 18 times
  • Every contact-sync run leaves an audit row behind, alongside HubSpot
  • Fans the same result out to Gmail in the same run, for contact sync

Use cases

  • Teams keeping HubSpot and PostgreSQL aligned by hand for contact sync
  • Contact sync work where "Map to Canonical Schema" is still a manual step before HubSpot
  • Contact sync work that only reaches HubSpot on a schedule, when someone remembers to start it

From download to running in 3 steps

  1. 1
    Import. In n8n, open Workflows → menu → “Import from File” and pick the downloaded JSON.
  2. 2
    Connect. Add your own credentials on the app nodes - n8n highlights exactly which ones need them.
  3. 3
    Activate. Run it once to test, then toggle Active. The automation is live.

What you'll learn

Advanced level

Adds branching depth and audit logging on top of the core pattern.

  • Moving data between PostgreSQL, HubSpot and Gmail in a single run
  • Splitting one run into branches and merging the results back
  • Normalising timestamps before anything downstream compares them

Every node carries its own documentation on the canvas, plus notes explaining why the architecture was built this way, a credential setup guide, troubleshooting, and three practice exercises. Sample data comes pinned to the trigger, so you can hit Execute and watch data flow before connecting a single account.

Common questions

What exactly do I get?

The complete, ready-to-import n8n workflow as a JSON file, delivered instantly after payment. Import it into your own n8n (cloud or self-hosted), add your credentials, and it runs.

How do I import it into n8n?

In n8n, open Workflows, click the three-dot menu, choose “Import from File”, and select the downloaded JSON. Then connect your own app credentials on the highlighted nodes.

Do I need anything else for it to work?

You need your own n8n instance and accounts/credentials for the apps this workflow connects to (HubSpot, PostgreSQL, Gmail). No coding is required.

What if it doesn't work for me?

If the file is faulty, won't import, or isn't as described, contact us within 7 days and we'll fix it or refund you - see our refund policy.

Can I modify or resell it?

You can freely adapt and use it in your own or your clients' projects. Reselling or redistributing the template file itself is not permitted.
