HubSpot Connection

HubSpot on Connect iPaaS uses APIKey authorization and OAuth authorization. By linking your HubSpot account with Connect iPaaS using OAuth authorization, you can authorize RoboMQ to have a delegated access on your behalf. RoboMQ needs the following permissions on your account to provide a seamless integration experience:

Object	Permission
Tickets	Read and write tickets Permission
Contacts	Read and write contacts permission
User and Account Information	Access to read information about user and account

Please refer to "An Integration with OAuth 2.0" to know more about OAuth 2.0 and the scopes in HubSpot.

Using the API Key connection mechanism, you can authorize Connect iPaaS to have the same level of access as the principal user of the account that generated the API key. These permissions may be more permissive than what could be achieved using OAuth. For security considerations, we recommend using OAuth wherever available.

We at RoboMQ pay utmost attention to keep your account secure. See our Security and Privacy Policy to learn more about how RoboMQ handles your account access.
