How to Pull CRM Data from Salesforce, HubSpot, and 38+ Platforms with a Unified API


October 27, 2025

Customer data powers every SaaS product — from dashboards to AI copilots. But CRM systems each use different schemas, authentication models, and rate limits. Building and maintaining connectors for Salesforce, HubSpot, and dozens of others slows teams down and fragments data pipelines.

Unified.to makes it simple to fetch normalized CRM data across 38+ platforms through one unified API. Your product can power analytics, insights, and AI workflows using live CRM context — without writing vendor-specific code or managing sync logic.

When to Use CRM Data Sync

With a unified API, you can:

  • Build customer 360 dashboards that unify accounts, contacts, deals, and activities.
  • Feed AI pipelines (RAG, scoring, summarization) with current CRM context.
  • Generate operational insights like pipeline health, attribution, and engagement analytics.
  • Backup and archive CRM data directly into your warehouse or object storage.

Unified Objects & Key Entities

Unified.to normalizes core CRM entities across 38+ systems, giving you a consistent data model for analytics and AI:

  3. Incremental Sync — Use Unified's webhooks or managed polling to retrieve new or updated records in real time.
