Hi, I'm trying to create a API to upload a local file with node js, I use this code from

https://legacydocs.hubspot.com/docs/methods/files/v3/upload_new_file

but I get this error

null 401 {"status":"error","message":"This hapikey has been invalidated.","correlationId":"9a164839-aa7d-4a26-ab9c-f73b36cce89c","category":"EXPIRED_AUTHENTICATION","errors":[{"message":"The API key used to make this call has expired."}]}

Hi @igeorge5,

The reason you are seeing this issue is that API keys have been deprecated and are no long a valid means of authentication. As you'd correctly mentioned - private apps (or public apps using OAuth2) are the preferred approach. In order to do this with a private app, you must first create the private app and obtain an access token. The access token is then simply included as a header in your request as opposed to a query parameter.

You would then need to modify your code to this:

request.post({ headers: { 'Authorization': `Bearer ${your_token}` }, url: postUrl, formData: formData }, function optionalCallback(err, httpResponse, body) { return console.log(err, httpResponse.statusCode, body); });
