Overview
Qualified is a conversational sales and marketing platform that helps revenue teams identify and engage with website visitors. With the Qualified destination, you can sync lead and company data from your data warehouse to Qualified, ensuring your sales team has the most up-to-date information when engaging with prospects.Supported syncing
For more information about sync modes, refer to the sync modes docs.
Connect to Qualified
Go to the Destinations overview page and click the Add destination button. Select Qualified and click Continue. You will be required to enter your Qualified API key. Generate a Qualified API key with access to the Enterprise bulk endpoints in your Qualified account. The API key must have permissions to access the bulk API endpoints for leads and companies. Paste the API key exactly as provided; Hightouch passes it as a Bearer token in API requests.Sync configuration
Once you’ve set up your Qualified destination and have a model to pull data from, you can set up your sync configuration to begin syncing data. Go to the Syncs overview page and click the Add sync button to begin. Then, select the relevant model and the Qualified destination you want to sync to.Object selection
Choose which Qualified object to sync to:- Leads: Sync lead data to Qualified
- Companies: Sync company data to Qualified
Record matching
Records are matched from your model to Qualified based on the object type:- Leads: Match by Email. The email address is the primary identifier for leads in Qualified. Qualified upserts leads by email address.
- Companies: Match by Domain. The company domain is the primary identifier for companies in Qualified. Qualified upserts companies by domain.
Leads synced to Qualified will not appear in the Qualified interface until they have activity associated with them (such as website visits or engagement). The data is successfully synced, but Qualified requires activity before displaying leads in the platform.
Field mapping
You can sync columns from your source to Qualified’s default and custom fields. Map Hightouch columns to Qualified fields in the field mapping section. When syncing Leads, you can map both:- Lead fields: Fields that belong to the lead record
- Company fields: Fields that belong to the associated company record
- Company fields: Fields that belong to the company record
Qualified requires object fields to be created in advance. After adding new fields in Qualified, click “Refresh fields” in the mapper to pull the latest definitions. Hightouch cannot provision fields automatically.
Tips and troubleshooting
To see the exact API requests and responses from each sync run, use the live debugger. To get notified by Slack, PagerDuty, SMS, or email when a sync fails, set up sync alerts. If you run into an issue this page doesn’t cover, .Sync performance

If you encounter rate limit errors (429 or 503 status codes), the destination will automatically retry with exponential backoff. Contact Qualified support to understand your account’s specific rate limits.Field mapping errors
If you receive errors about invalid fields:- Ensure custom fields exist in Qualified before mapping to them
