    {
      "q": "Is there a Mortgage Automator app in the HubSpot App Marketplace?",
      "a": "No. Searching the HubSpot Marketplace turns up five loosely matching apps, none of them published for Mortgage Automator. Our own HubSpot and Mortgage Automator sync app is in development for the HubSpot Marketplace and is not listed yet, so it is not a route you can take today. We scope a custom build instead."
    },
    {
      "q": "How does the Mortgage Automator API authenticate a request?",
      "a": "With two headers rather than a bearer token. The account id goes in one, and the second carries a digest of the account id, the API key, the entity and action being called, and an hourly timestamp in UTC. The digest changes every hour, so a long-running job has to recompute it instead of caching one value."
    },
    {
      "q": "Can Mortgage Automator send a webhook when a loan changes?",
      "a": "No. The Lender API documentation describes no webhook or subscription mechanism. Change is delivered instead through created and updated loan feeds that a client lists and then acknowledges. Every other entity is a paginated scan, so the integration polls on a schedule and compares what it reads against what it stored last time."
    },
    {
      "q": "How quickly does a funded loan appear in HubSpot?",
      "a": "As fast as the polling interval allows, which is a design choice rather than a vendor limit. The documentation states no request ceiling and no recommended cadence. We usually run the loan feeds every few minutes and the full entity scans hourly, which keeps the deal record current without hammering the source."
    },
    {
      "q": "What happens if the sync misses a loan update for two days?",
      "a": "The feed purges it. Created and updated items that are not acknowledged within 48 hours are removed, so an outage over a long weekend leaves a hole the feed cannot report. We acknowledge only after the HubSpot write commits, and a reconciliation pass counts loans on both sides so the gap surfaces as a number."
    },
    {
      "q": "Should a Mortgage Automator loan be a HubSpot deal or a custom object?",
      "a": "A deal, in almost every case. Lenders want funded volume, maturity dates and broker attribution in pipeline reporting, and a deal gets that for free. Investment accounts and individual investments belong on custom objects, because they are positions rather than pipeline, and putting them in a pipeline distorts every forecast."
    },
    {
      "q": "Can HubSpot write back to Mortgage Automator?",
      "a": "For people and firms, yes. Borrowers, broker firms, broker staff and investors can move in both directions, so a contact corrected in HubSpot updates the lending system. Loans, investment accounts and investments stay read only into HubSpot. Their terms are servicing records, and a pipeline edit is not an approved change to a loan."
    },
    {
      "q": "How many hours does a Mortgage Automator and HubSpot integration take?",
      "a": "A keyed two-way sync across the main entities runs 10 to 20 hours of discovery and 70 to 150 hours of build. Read-only into HubSpot sits at the bottom of that band. Two-way on people and firms adds conflict rules, echo suppression and the identity tie handling that most of the upper range pays for."
