Sync contacts across systems on a schedule
Runs on a schedule across Google Sheets, MySQL and Slack, routes each kind of record down its own branch, then writes the result out as a file. Built for contact sync, around a "Map to Canonical Schema" step, in 22 documented nodes.
Sync contacts across systems with HubSpot and MySQL 24/7. An original, ready-to-import n8n workflow built around the 'Two-System Sync' pattern for sales & CRM. It runs on a schedule and orchestrates 22 nodes across Google Sheets, MySQL, Slack. 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 Google Sheets and MySQL in step for contact sync, without anyone re-typing a row
- ✓A failed Google Sheets or MySQL call is retried rather than dropped, at any of the 22 nodes in this contact-sync build
- ✓Branches rejoin before Google Sheets, so a contact-sync run reports once rather than 22 times
- ✓Every contact-sync run leaves an audit row behind, alongside Google Sheets
- ✓Fans the same result out to Slack in the same run, for contact sync
Use cases
- →Teams keeping Google Sheets and MySQL aligned by hand for contact sync
- →Contact sync work where "Map to Canonical Schema" is still a manual step before Google Sheets
- →Contact sync work that only reaches Google Sheets on a schedule, when someone remembers to start it

From download to running in 3 steps
- 1Import. In n8n, open Workflows → menu → “Import from File” and pick the downloaded JSON.

- 3Activate. Run it once to test, then toggle Active. The automation is live.
What you'll learn
Production levelProduction-grade: idempotency, dead-letter handling, and reconciliation included.
- •Moving data between MySQL, HubSpot and Google Sheets 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 (Google Sheets, MySQL, Slack, HubSpot, …). 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.
