What it does

When a reverse-ETL job syncing Snowflake records into HubSpot reports a failure, this workflow automatically separates recoverable problems (rate limits, timeouts) from genuinely bad data (validation errors, missing required fields). It retries the recoverable batch, moves persistently failing rows into a quarantine table, and tells your team exactly which records can't be saved and why.

When to use it

Run this whenever a scheduled reverse-ETL pipeline pushes customer or account data from your warehouse into HubSpot and you're tired of silent partial failures. It's for data teams who want syncs to heal themselves instead of paging an engineer for every transient HubSpot 429.

How it works

A webhook from your ETL tool fires on sync failure with the failed-row payload. A logic step classifies each failure as transient or permanent by error code. Transient rows are re-pushed to HubSpot with exponential backoff. Rows that still fail, plus all permanent failures, are written to a `quarantine` table in Snowflake with their error reason. A final Slack message summarizes counts: retried-and-recovered, quarantined, and unrecoverable, with the worst offenders listed inline.
