How HubSpot and TikTok Ads records line up
HubSpot and TikTok Ads both store the customer's email address. askotter lowercases and trims it on both sides before matching, so the same person shows up as one customer across the two tools.
HubSpot and TikTok Ads both keep the UTM source, medium and campaign values from the visit, so activity lines up campaign by campaign even when no single person can be matched.
Shared between the two: the customer email address and the UTM campaign tags.
What combined reporting uses from each
Combined reporting needs a shared identifier or a shared time grain.
From HubSpot that means contact emails and company domains. From TikTok Ads it means ttclids and lead-form emails.
TikTok Ads is on the integration roadmap, so the matching described here starts when that connector ships.
What each tool sees on its ownShow less
HubSpot on its own
HubSpot sees the contact and the deal. It cannot see money collected outside it, or ad spend on platforms it is not connected to.
Timing. HubSpot updates contact and deal properties as they change, and keeps the original source and first page seen on each contact.
Access. A HubSpot private app or OAuth connection with read-only CRM scopes.
TikTok Ads on its own
TikTok sees views, clicks and the conversions its pixel catches. It cannot see what happens after a visitor leaves the tracked site.
Timing. TikTok reports conversions under the attribution windows chosen in the ad account, and those counts can include view-through conversions.
Access. The TikTok Marketing API with read access to the ad account.
