Why teams connect HubSpot and Marketo

Keep the people you sell to and the people you market to in one shared view: HubSpot and Marketo sync contacts, accounts, and engagement in real time, in both directions.

HubSpot owns the customer relationship and the pipeline; Marketo runs the campaigns, audiences, and outreach that fill it. The two overlap on the same people and companies — a lead in one system is a subscriber, a segment member, an event registrant, or an ad audience in the other. When that overlap is bridged by CSV exports or a nightly job, sales works from lists that no longer match reality and marketing keeps targeting people whose status has already moved on.

Stacksync syncs Stages, Audit, Contact, Company in HubSpot with Companies, Opportunities and Opportunity Roles, Custom Objects, Activities and Lead Changes in Marketo field by field, in real time, and in both directions. You decide which system owns which fields — HubSpot can own account and opportunity status while Marketo owns engagement and campaign membership — and Stacksync keeps every copy consistent and resolves conflicts by rules you set.

Common use cases

  • 01 Sync HubSpot Tickets with an internal support database to unify service reporting across channels.
  • 02 Push product signup and usage events into HubSpot contact properties to drive lifecycle marketing segmentation.
  • 03 Extract Marketo Activities (opens, clicks, form fills, Data Value Changes) through Bulk Activity Extract or Get Lead Activities into a warehouse for lead scoring and multi-touch attribution.
  • 04 Load purchase or product-usage records into Custom Objects linked to Leads so nurture campaigns branch on behavior mastered in another system.

Common sync patterns

Where Marketo captures engagement: activity lands on the record

Opens, clicks, form fills, event attendance, or ad responses recorded in Marketo post back to the contact or account in HubSpot, so reps see interest before they reach out.

Lead and lifecycle status agree

Status, stage, or score set in one system updates the matching record in the other, so a lead marketing is still nurturing is not worked as sales-ready, and a closed account stops receiving prospecting.

Segments and audiences follow the CRM

Where Marketo builds lists, segments, or ad audiences, membership tracks the fields and stage owned in HubSpot, so who receives a campaign reflects current pipeline reality instead of a stale export.

What you can sync between HubSpot and Marketo

Representative objects on each side — any object or custom field can map to any target. Schemas are auto-detected; types are converted between the two systems.

HubSpot objects Marketo objects How this pairing syncs
Company Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Companies Company records linked to Leads via a company link field; read and upserted through /rest/v1/companies.json, typically mastered in a CRM or ERP and written into Marketo for account context. Same entity on both sides — records pair one-to-one and field-level changes reconcile in both directions.
Deal Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Static Lists Named static lists; read via /rest/v1/lists.json, with Leads added or removed via POST and DELETE on /rest/v1/lists/{listId}/leads.json to control campaign membership from lifecycle logic computed downstream. Deal is specific to HubSpot and Static Lists to Marketo — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Line Item Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Programs and Program Members Marketing programs read via /rest/v1/programs.json; program membership and member status managed via /rest/v1/leads/programs/{programId}.json and the program status endpoint for acquisition and attribution reporting. Line Item is specific to HubSpot and Programs and Program Members to Marketo — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Product Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Smart Campaigns Automation flows read via /rest/v1/campaigns.json and run against a set of Leads by requesting a trigger campaign with POST /rest/v1/campaigns/{id}/trigger.json, so downstream logic can push Leads into a Marketo flow. Product is specific to HubSpot and Smart Campaigns to Marketo — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Ticket Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Leads Core person records (called Leads/People), deduped on email address by default or a configured dedupe field; read via GET /rest/v1/leads.json with a filterType, upserted via POST /rest/v1/leads.json (action createOrUpdate/createOnly/updateOnly), bulk-imported via CSV through POST /bulk/v1/leads.json, and bulk-exported via /bulk/v1/leads/export/create.json. Ticket is specific to HubSpot and Leads to Marketo — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Quote Synced with incremental and full sync per the Stacksync docs. Opportunities and Opportunity Roles Revenue objects synced via /rest/v1/opportunities.json and /rest/v1/opportunities/roles.json; roles associate an opportunity with a Lead, so pipeline data can drive nurture and scoring. Quote is specific to HubSpot and Opportunities and Opportunity Roles to Marketo — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between HubSpot and Marketo

Each direction of the sync is driven by what the source system can signal and what the destination accepts — detection, delivery, and expected latency below.

HubSpot Marketo Sub-second propagation

DetectionHubSpot pushes changes as they happen — webhook events backed by change data capture. Records: incremental near-real-time change tracking.

DeliveryEach detected change is written to Marketo through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Marketo HubSpot Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Marketo for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling: Get Lead Changes and Get Lead Activities from a paging token seeded by a sinceDatetime, plus Get Deleted Leads, or Bulk Extract filtered on.

DeliveryEach detected change is written to HubSpot through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Rate-limit considerations

  • HubSpot: Request limits vary by subscription tier and API type.
  • Marketo: Interactive calls are capped at 100 per 20 seconds (error 606) and a maximum of 10 concurrent calls (error 615) per instance, neither increasable; a default daily quota of 50,000 calls (increasable, resets midnight CST) applies. Bulk Extract shares a 500 MB/day export quota across data types with at most 2 concurrent jobs and 10 queued.

Marketo

Integration surface
Marketo REST API (JSON over HTTPS) for Leads, Companies, Opportunities, Custom Objects, Activities, Lists, Programs, and Campaigns, plus an asynchronous Bulk Import (leads) and Bulk Extract (leads/activities/program members/custom objects) API and an Asset REST API for emails, forms, and landing pages
Authentication
OAuth 2.0 client_credentials (2-legged): GET the Identity URL /oauth/token?grant_type=client_credentials with a Custom Service client_id and client_secret to receive an access token valid for 3600 seconds, then send it as Authorization: Bearer on each call. The instance base URL is https://{munchkinId}.mktorest.com; passing the token as an access_token query parameter is deprecated (removal July 31, 2026).
Change detection
Polling: Get Lead Changes and Get Lead Activities from a paging token seeded by a sinceDatetime, plus Get Deleted Leads, or Bulk Extract filtered on createdAt/updatedAt. Marketo's Webhooks are Smart Campaign flow-step outbound HTTP calls to a URL, not a general record-change subscription, so there is no push feed of arbitrary CRUD.
