How does SurroundR capture LinkedIn contacts into HubSpot?

Install the Chrome extension, connect HubSpot with OAuth, open a LinkedIn profile, and click capture. Name, title, company, owner, and lifecycle stage write to HubSpot from the profile you are on — about two seconds per contact, with enrichment on save.

What HubSpot permissions does capture need?

SurroundR requests HubSpot OAuth scopes covering: Contacts, Companies, Deals, Contact property settings, Company property settings, Deal property settings, CRM import (create / modify via import), Users assigned on CRM records, User object, Account users & permissions, Workflows, Sequences, Sequence enrollments, Basic account info (domain, user emails). The full permission table with a why for each scope lives on the security page — including deals and property-schema permissions, not contacts and companies alone. You approve the exact list on HubSpot's consent screen. Authentication uses OAuth 2.0 — SurroundR never sees your HubSpot password. OAuth tokens are encrypted with AES-256-GCM.

Can I try LinkedIn contact capture for free?

Yes. Free includes 100 credits per month with no card required. Install from the Chrome Web Store, connect HubSpot, and capture from the next profile you open.

How long does one capture take?

About two seconds per contact once the extension is installed and HubSpot is connected. You stay on the LinkedIn profile — no copy-paste into HubSpot.

The capture workflow, side by side

Same job — get this LinkedIn profile into HubSpot. Different cost in time, typos, and duplicate records.

Before

Tab-switch, retype, hope

Open HubSpot in another tab. Copy name, title, company by hand. Fix typos later — if you notice them.

After SurroundR

One click on the profile

Name, title, company, owner, and lifecycle stage write to HubSpot from the page you are already viewing.

1 · Before / after

Capture in place — not across tabs

Without SurroundR you bounce between LinkedIn and HubSpot, retyping name, title, and company. With SurroundR you stay on the profile and click once — the contact lands in HubSpot already filled in.

How dedup decides

Match keys before create

If any key matches an existing HubSpot contact, SurroundR updates that record. Custom unique identifiers your team uses outside these keys are not matched by default.

Email
Phone
LinkedIn URL

2 · Dedup

Update existing contacts — do not spawn duplicates

SurroundR matches on email, phone, or LinkedIn URL. If a match is found, it updates the existing HubSpot record instead of creating a duplicate. Empty fields get filled from the capture and enrichment run.
