Urgent Harvest Time entry? Escalate to HubSpot Immediately

This n8n workflow flags any high-priority Harvest time entry and has HubSpot create or update a HubSpot record right away, so nothing important sits unread.

difficulty Beginnersetup 15 minresult A hands-off n8n workflow where every relevant Harvest time entry automatically reaches HubSpot — create or update a HubSpot record.
  1. 1

    Fetch Harvest data

    Add an HTTP Request node (or the native Harvest node if you have credentials set up) and point it at the Harvest API. Poll Harvest for new time entrys and filter for urgency. Add a Schedule Trigger before it if this recipe runs on a timer, or a Webhook node if Harvest can push events directly.

  2. 2

    Shape the data with a Set node

    Add a Set node after the fetch step to pull out the fields you need — e.g. id, title (or name), status, and updated_at from the Harvest time entry. This keeps the rest of the workflow clean and readable.

  3. 3

    Send it to HubSpot

    Add a HubSpot node set to the right resource (Contact/Deal), operation Create/Update. Map the key field (usually email) and the rest from the Set node.

  4. 4

    Activate and test

    Click Activate in the top-right corner. Trigger a real time entry in Harvest (or run the workflow manually against existing data) and confirm it lands correctly in HubSpot. Once verified, this runs hands-off.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to code anything?

No. n8n is a visual, drag-and-drop builder. You connect your Harvest and HubSpot accounts, map the fields, and activate — no code required.

Where do I get my Harvest API credentials?

In your Harvest account settings, look for "API", "Developers" or "Integrations" and generate an API key or token. Paste it into n8n's HTTP Request node (as a header or credential) or the native Harvest node if one is available.

Can I filter which items trigger this workflow?

Yes. Add an `IF` node after the Set node with a condition on any field (status, amount, tag, etc.). Wire the TRUE branch to the HubSpot step and leave FALSE empty to skip the rest.
