Hunter offers a free Salesforce integration that lets you connect to your Salesforce account and automatically export newly generated leads.
How to connect Hunter to Salesforce
Step 1: Open the Integrations page
Find the "Integrations" section in the left sidebar menu and click it.
Click "Connect" in the Salesforce section of the Integrations page, where all available CRM integrations are listed.
Step 2: Connect Salesforce
Click "Allow" on Salesforce to authorise the connection and grant Hunter access to your account. This opens the Salesforce configuration page, where you can review and update your settings.
Step 3: Map your fields
From the configuration page, you can map your default Salesforce fields to the corresponding Hunter lead attributes.
Step 4: Choose your sync settings
You can configure what happens in Salesforce when leads are modified in Hunter:
Update leads in Salesforce when they are updated in Hunter
Delete leads in Salesforce when they are deleted from Hunter
You can also select when a lead should be created in Salesforce:
When you create a lead in Hunter,
When an email is sent from Hunter Sequences to the lead,
Or opt to do this sync manually.
Before creating a new record, Hunter checks Salesforce for an existing Lead or Contact with the same email address. If it finds one, it updates that record instead of creating a duplicate.
If you had existing leads in Hunter before connecting, they won't be synced automatically. You'll see a "Synchronize all your existing leads" option on the integration settings page — click the "Synchronize X leads" button to import them all at once.
Viewing your leads in Salesforce
Once the integration is active, go to the "Leads" section of your Salesforce account. All leads created in Hunter after connecting will appear there automatically.
👉 About sync pauses
If Salesforce briefly rate-limits Hunter, an affected sync may pause and then complete automatically once the limit clears. This isn't a failure — no action is needed on your end.
💡 If your Salesforce edition or user profile doesn't include API access, Hunter will show you an error explaining this. If you're on the Professional Edition, you'll need to contact Salesforce Support to activate API access. On Enterprise or Unlimited Edition, check that the connecting user's profile has API access enabled.
Head back to the Integrations page anytime to review or update your Salesforce sync settings.
