### Connect multiple sources to one instance of a destination | ||
|
||
It is not possible to connect more than one source to the same instance of a destination. However, you can create another instance of the same destination for the other sources, and click **Copy Settings From Other Destination** to save yourself time entering the settings values again. |

Hi @tawe-segment, I had a quick question about what this means: if I had two of the same sources, I wouldn't be able to send them to the same instance of a destination?
For example, if I had two sources, JS code on Site A and JS code on Site B, I wouldn't be able to send events from both Site A & Site B to one Hubspot instance, but could create a second Hubspot instance and send site A to one Hubspot instance and site B to the other instance?

@forstisabella - correct, if you create two separate website sources, each with different writekeys, you cannot point them both to the same instance of a destination without having to create that destination twice for each individually.
So for your example with two sources:
Site A - writekey: 123
Site B - writekey 789
You will have to create 2 HubSpot instances, one connected to the Site A source and another to the Site B source = 2 instances of HubSpot.
And that will look something like this on the Destinations UI even though they are all sending data to the same HubSpot ID:
