👥 How can I reference specific associated objects in ChiliDocs®?

When HubSpot objects are associated with each other (e.g., a deal with multiple contacts), ChiliDocs® allows you to reference a specific association in your template.

Default behavior

  • If you use a placeholder like [contact.firstname] in a deal, ChiliDocs® automatically pulls data from an associated contact.

  • This works even without specifying an association label.

 

Specific associations with labels

  • If you want to reference a specific associated contact, you can use labels in your placeholders.

  • Add the label in parentheses:

  • Primary association:
    • [contact(Primary).firstname]
    • [contact(Primary).lastname]

  • Other labels: 

    • [contact(Some Label).lastname]

This way, you can control which associated contact (e.g., Primary Contact, Billing Contact, Technical Contact) appears in your document.

 

💡 Note:

  • This syntax works for all objects, not just contacts.

  • Example: [company(Partner).name] will pull the company associated with the label Partner.
