Update Contact V2

Update a HubSpot contact property using a linked meeting for context, so the value can be determined automatically instead of typed in by hand.

Update Contact V2 node in the workflow builder

What It Does

Reads the meeting you specify and uses it, along with any instructions you provide, to determine the value for the contact property you're updating. Depending on configuration, it either replaces the existing value or appends to it, and can pause for confirmation before writing.

When To Use It

Use this after a meeting to update a contact property based on what was discussed, such as a role change or a stated preference. This is the preferred way to update contact properties from meeting context. Use Update Contact only for a direct, literal property write with no AI involved.

Configuration

Configure the node with these settings:

Field

What it controls

Meeting

The AskElephant meeting used as context for the update. Required.

Contacts

The HubSpot contact or contacts to update. Required.

Contact Property to Update

The internal name of the property to update. Required.

Description

Additional instructions on how the property should be updated. Optional.

Update Method

Append or Replace. Only applies to text or multi-select properties. Defaults to Append.

Require Confirmation

Pause and require confirmation before writing the update. Defaults to false.

Outputs

The node passes these values downstream. Check the Outputs tab on the configured node to confirm exact paths.

This node does not emit output variables.

Example Workflow

After a discovery call, a workflow uses this node to update a contact's job_title property based on what the contact said about their role during the meeting.
