In order to tie Web Events with CRM Events (offline conversions) AnyTrack must attach a unique and anonymous identifier to the Contact and

Since the Hubspot native forms are generated using a Javascript Anytrack is unable to AutoTag the form with the click_id.

Solution: To overcome this feature we will be using the external_id method and tie one of Hubspot identifiers with the AnyTrack first party data.

2. Custom integration via Zapier > Hubspot > Webhook Automation.
