Verify before HubSpot deal-won welcome emails (HubSpot β Gmail)
A HubSpot deal moves to "won", and before the automated welcome email goes out via Gmail, the contact address is verified.
Why verify before the send
Deal records often carry the address a rep typed in a hurry. Sending onboarding to a misspelled or role address means a new customer never hears from you β and your domain takes a bounce at the worst possible moment.
The workflow
HubSpot β BillionVerify β Gmail β verification sits right before the send.
Node by node

- 2Verify EmailVerifyΒ· billionverify
The BillionVerify node, operation "Verify Email". Map its Email field to the address from the previous node. It returns status (valid / invalid / risky / catch-all / role / disposable), is_deliverable, a confidence score, and the reason β all before anything is sent.
- 3IF deliverableLogicΒ· n8n

- 5Flag in HubSpotLogicΒ· hubspot
For the false branch: set a property or task on the contact so a human fixes the address before onboarding continues.
