Create HubSpot contact from a LinkedIn profile
Introduction
Turn a LinkedIn profile into a complete HubSpot contact—automatically ✅
Trigger Event
A webhook request is received with:
- LinkedIn username (profile handle)
- Contact email (for HubSpot)
Actions
- Request LinkedIn profile
- The workflow sends the LinkedIn username to MagicalAPI to start fetching the profile.
- Wait 2 minutes
- Gives the profile fetch enough time to complete in the background.
- Check status and retrieve profile
- Uses the request ID from step 1 to poll MagicalAPI and pull the final profile data (headline, company, title, description, LinkedIn URL, followers, etc.).
- Create contact in HubSpot
- A new HubSpot contact is created using the email from the trigger, and enriched with profile details:
- Company (from most recent experience)
- Job title
- Headline and description
- LinkedIn URL
- Followers
Benefits
- No manual copy-paste from LinkedIn to HubSpot
- Faster lead capture from social profiles
- Consistent data in your CRM; fewer typos
- Simple, repeatable handoff from research to sales
