I’m working on a HubSpot landing page and need to add a form that was created outside of HubSpot. I’ve been struggling to figure out the right approach for this. The form is built with a different platform and I want to make sure it displays properly and functions correctly when visitors interact with it. I’ve looked through some documentation but I’m still confused about the technical steps involved. Has anyone successfully done this before? What method did you use to get the external form working smoothly on your HubSpot page? I’m particularly concerned about making sure the styling matches and that form submissions are handled properly. Any guidance would be really helpful since I’m not super technical and want to avoid breaking anything on the page.
I hit the same issues integrating a Gravity Forms widget into HubSpot last quarter. Don’t just focus on the technical setup - you need proper form validation on both sides. External forms often have different validation rules than HubSpot expects, causing submission errors you won’t catch right away. Build a test version first and try multiple submission scenarios before going live. Watch out for page speed too. Third-party forms can really slow things down if they’re pulling extra CSS or JavaScript files, and that’ll hurt your HubSpot performance. If the form platform has webhooks, use them - it’s the cleanest way to push data straight into your CRM without doing it manually.
i’ve tried this b4, and using the iframe code usually does the trick. just stick it in a rich text area on ur hubspot page. might need some tweaks to get the look right, but it’s not too hard once u get the hang of it.
The rich text module works, but I’ve had better luck with HubSpot’s Custom HTML module. When I integrated Typeform into our landing page last year, custom HTML gave me way more control over positioning and fixed display issues I kept getting with rich text. Grab the responsive embed code if your form provider has it - saved me hours of CSS tweaking. Heads up: some external forms mess with HubSpot’s tracking scripts, so double check your analytics still work after integration. If your form collects leads, you’ll probably need to manually sync that data back to HubSpot unless there’s native integration.
depends on your form platform. some have direct hubspot integrations that make everything easier. if yours doesn’t, go with a custom html module like everyone else said. just a heads up - external forms sometimes look weird on mobile, so test that first.
Embed code works best for this. Grab the HTML embed code from your form platform and drop it into HubSpot’s custom HTML module. Just make sure you test submissions thoroughly after - I’ve seen forms that looked perfect but weren’t actually sending data anywhere. Check if your form platform has a direct HubSpot connector too. Some services handle all the technical stuff automatically. Preview everything extensively before going live since external forms can act weird in HubSpot compared to regular pages.
