View and analyze previous imports

After importing objects to HubSpot, you can view and analyze your previous imports in the imports dashboard. This can help with any import errors, or understanding where a record was created.

Imports dashboard

  • Name: the name of the import that was added in the Import Details.

  • New: the number of new contacts added. If a contact already existed in your database prior to the import, it will not be included in this value.

  • Updated: the number of records updated by the import.

  • Error count: the number of records in your import that resulted in an error and could not be processed. To see a detailed list of errors, click the More dropdown menu and select Download errors to see a detailed list of errors.

  • Source: the type of import selected.

  • User: the name of the user in your account who imported the file.

  • Created: the date the import was completed.
