HubSpot credentials
You can use these credentials to authenticate the following tools:
- HubSpot
- HubSpot Trigger
Supported authentication methods
- App token: Use with the HubSpot tool.
- Developer API key: Use with the HubSpot Trigger tool.
- OAuth2: Use with the HubSpot tool.
API key deprecated: HubSpot deprecated the regular API Key authentication method. The option still appears in nuhello, but you should use the authentication methods listed above instead. If you have existing integrations using this API key method, refer to HubSpot's Migrate an API key integration to a private app (opens in a new tab) guide and set up an app token.

Required scopes for HubSpot Trigger tool
If you're creating an app for use with the HubSpot Trigger tool, nuhello recommends starting with these scopes:
| Element | Object | Permission | Scope name |
|---|---|---|---|
| n/a | n/a | n/a | oauth |
| CRM | Companies | Read | crm.objects.companies.read |
| CRM | Companies schemas | Read | crm.schemas.companies.read |

| CRM | Contacts schemas | Read | crm.schemas.contacts.read |
| CRM | Deals | Read | crm.objects.deals.read |

HubSpot old accounts: Some HubSpot accounts don't have access to all the scopes. HubSpot is migrating accounts gradually. If you can't find all the scopes in your current HubSpot developer account, try creating a fresh developer account.

- On the App Info tab, add an App name, Description, Logo, and any support contact info you want to provide. Anyone encountering the app would see these.

- Add all the scopes listed in Required scopes for HubSpot tool to your app.
- Select Update.
- Copy the nuhello OAuth Redirect URL and enter it as the Redirect URL in your HubSpot app.
