HubSpot

Private-app access token for the HubSpot CRM API.

Fields

FieldDescriptionRequired
Private App Access TokenFrom Settings → Integrations → Private Apps in HubSpot (starts with pat-). Grant the CRM scopes your workflow needs (e.g. crm.objects.contacts.read/write).Yes
App Client SecretFrom your app’s Auth tab. Required only for real-time HubSpot triggers (webhooks) so we can verify inbound event signatures.No

Setup Steps

  • Step 1: In HubSpot, go to Settings → Integrations → Private Apps and click Create a private app.
  • Step 2: On the Scopes tab, add the CRM scopes your workflows need. For full use of the HubSpot node and trigger, grant read and write on crm.objects.contacts, crm.objects.companies, crm.objects.deals, and crm.objects.tickets.
  • Step 3: Create the app and copy the access token (starts with pat-).
  • Step 4: In Falcon Builder, go to Dashboard → Credentials → Add Credential, pick HubSpot, and paste the token.
  • Step 5: Click Test Connection. We hit GET /crm/v3/objects/contacts?limit=1 to confirm the token and its scopes.
  • Step 6 (real-time triggers only): Copy the app's Client Secret from the Auth tab into the credential's Client Secret field so we can verify inbound webhook signatures.

Notes

  • Private-app tokens are scoped to a single HubSpot account. Create one credential per account you want to automate.
  • A 403 on test usually means the token is valid but missing a CRM scope — add the scope in HubSpot and the token updates automatically.
