HubSpot Custom Event Integration for Short Link Clicks
Matt Vogt
Current State:
Sakari already provides short link tracking that shows click analytics in the Sakari dashboard.
Request:
Automatically sync short link click events to HubSpot as custom events, similar to how HubSpot tracks email link clicks.
Functionality Needed:
When a contact clicks a Sakari short link, fire a custom event in HubSpot with properties (not sure how this works but):
Contact ID
Shortlink Name
SMS campaign name
Original destination URL
Timestamp
Click count (if multiple clicks)
Business Value:
Enable HubSpot workflows triggered by SMS link clicks
Allow lead scoring based on SMS engagement
Create unified engagement view across email, SMS, and other channels
Support retargeting/follow-up based on click behavior
Use Case:
"When recipient clicks the webinar link in our SMS, automatically enroll them in our 'Hot Lead - Clicked SMS' workflow and notify the sales rep."
