# Connect HubSpot

> As a partner, connect your own HubSpot, add the Introw card to your deals, and verify it so vendor context and actions appear on your own CRM records.

{/* The partner-side setup that turns on Partner CRM: the partner authorizes their own HubSpot,
  installs the Introw Partner Connect card so vendor context renders on the deal, and verifies
  the card is live. These are the steps a partner runs in their own portal - the same wizard
  the connected-deals link flow starts from. Deal linking is HubSpot-only today. */}

Connecting HubSpot is the partner-side setup for Partner CRM: once you connect your own HubSpot and install the Introw card, the vendor on your deal and their live status appear right on your HubSpot record, and you can register, link, and co-sell without leaving your CRM. You only do this once.

## What you'll achieve

Your own HubSpot connected to the vendor's Introw, with the Introw Partner Connect card installed and verified on your deals. From then on, vendor deal context and actions render on your HubSpot records, and you can link existing deals to the vendor's matching deal.

## Before you start

<Steps>
  <Step title="Have portal access to the vendor's experience">
    You need access to the vendor's partner experience, which is where the **Integrations** page and the HubSpot setup wizard live.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Be a HubSpot admin">
    Connecting the account and adding a card to the default deal view requires HubSpot permissions to authorize an app and edit record customization.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Run HubSpot as your CRM">
    Partner-side connection and deal linking are HubSpot-only today. If you run Salesforce, register the deal instead of linking it.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Steps

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open Integrations and connect HubSpot">
    In your partner portal, go to [Integrations](https://partners.introw.io/integrations) and connect your **HubSpot** account. This authorizes Introw against your HubSpot and is what every later step builds on, so it has to finish successfully before the Introw card will appear in HubSpot.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Add the Introw card to your deals">
    On the **Add the Introw card** step, open your [HubSpot deal record customization](https://app-eu1.hubspot.com) settings, then:

    * Go to **Settings → Objects → Deals** and click **Customize the default deal view**.
    * Click **+** to add a new card, switch to the **Card library** tab, and search **Introw**.
    * Drag the **Introw Partner Connect** card into your preferred position on the deal page.
    * Click **Save** in the top right.

    This puts the Introw panel inside every HubSpot deal - where you share deals with vendors and see their status. You only need to add it once. If the card is not in the library, the HubSpot connection in the previous step did not finish.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Verify the card is live">
    On the **Verify installation** step, open any deal in HubSpot and look for the **Introw card** on the deal page. Introw detects the card automatically and, once found, advances you to linking. If automatic detection is unavailable, confirm the card is visible on a deal and continue - a visible card means setup is fine.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Link your existing deals">
    Once the card is verified, you land on **Link existing deals**, where you match your HubSpot deals to the vendor's. For the full linking flow, see [Enable Partner Connect and link a deal](/features/partner-connect/connected-deals/guides/enable-partner-connect-and-link-a-deal).
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Verify it worked

Open a deal in your HubSpot and confirm the Introw card renders vendor context on the record. On the setup wizard, the **Verify installation** step shows **Introw card detected** and the HubSpot connection shows as active, so you are ready to link and co-sell from your own CRM.
