Manage log and track settings
You can customize your default log and track preferences so the settings are applied each time you send an email. You can also add email addresses and domains to the Never log list to prevent emails sent to these addresses or domains from logging to HubSpot.
Customize your log and track preferences
Configure your preferences to always log and track emails in your HubSpot account.
- In Outlook, access your add-in settings.
- In the right panel, click Log & track settings.
- To log every email that you send to HubSpot, toggle the Log email switch on.
- To track every email that you send, toggle the Track email switch on.

Automatically log emails to associated record types
You can also customize which associated records the emails will automatically log to. For example, you can choose to only log emails to the record's associated deal records or only to existing contacts in your CRM.
Please note: if you have access to the Apply Activity Logging Defaults to External Emails beta, sales extension and BCC/forwarded emails will follow the automatic association rules and users cannot personalize default settings for emails sent via the add-in. The Apply Activity Logging Defaults to External Emails beta does not affect emails sent from shared inboxes (e.g., replies in the conversations and help desk tools) or outbound emails sent from sequences. Once this is rolled out to all accounts this year, users will be unable to personalize the extension's default association logging settings, but can still edit associations when sending individual emails.
- In Outlook, access your add-in settings.
- In the right panel, click Log & track settings.
- Click the Default associations dropdown menu and select the associated records to log to:
- Existing contacts: automatically log emails to contacts who already have a record for their email address in your CRM.
- New contacts: automatically log emails to new contacts included on the email. If the email is sent to an email address that is not associated to an existing contact in your CRM, a new contact record will be created and the email will log to this record.
- Companies: automatically log emails to associated company records.
- Deals: automatically log emails to associated deal records.
- Tickets: automatically log emails to associated ticket records.

Pin the task panel open
For an email to successfully log and track, the add-in task panel must be open when you send a logged or tracked email. You can pin this task panel in your inbox so it's always open.

- Click the Sales Tools sprocket icon in the email client to open the task panel.
- In the top right of the task panel, click the pin pin icon.

- In Outlook, access your add-in settings.
- In the right panel, click Log & track settings.
- In the Never log field, enter email addresses or domains you don't want to log emails for and click Add.
- Users with Account access permissions can block email addresses and domains for every user in their account. Enter the email addresses or domains then click the Add dropdown menu and select Block for all users.
