Why HubSpot Needs to Build a "Run Workflow" Button for Every Record View

Have you ever found yourself repeatedly performing the same set of actions in HubSpot and thought, "there must be a better way"? There absolutely should be.

The Missing HubSpot Feature That Could Change Everything

While HubSpot already offers an "Enroll in Workflow" button on the Contacts page, this powerful functionality is frustratingly limited to just one section of the platform. What if you could trigger workflows from any record view in HubSpot?

The Perfect Solution for Complex Action Sets

This hypothetical tool would be especially valuable when:

• You have groups of actions that logically belong together
• The triggers for these actions are too complex to define in a standard workflow

Imagine a "Workflow Executer" card sitting conveniently in your record sidebar, giving you instant access to all eligible workflows for that record type.

How It Would Work: Seamless Integration Where You Need It

The system would intelligently display only relevant workflow options based on the record type you're viewing - showing you exactly what you can execute from that context.

Why This Would Be a Game-Changer

With this functionality, you could:

1. Build reusable workflows for common action sequences
2. Deploy them tactically as specific situations arise
3. Get a 10x productivity boost by reducing complex behaviors to a single button click

A Surprisingly Simple Enhancement

The puzzling thing is that this seems like a relatively straightforward feature for HubSpot to implement. The technical barriers appear minimal compared to the massive productivity gains users would experience.

The existing app card development experience in HubSpot is already excellent - chef's kiss fantastic, even. It would be the perfect framework for implementing this feature.

Time for HubSpot to Take Action

HubSpot has always been focused on making complex marketing, sales, and service processes more efficient. Adding the ability to execute workflows from any record view aligns perfectly with that mission.

So, HubSpot team - if you're listening - this is a feature request that would make a real difference in your users' day-to-day operations. Let's make it happen!

What do you think? Would this feature improve your HubSpot experience?
