Link app developer account to private app

LUnderwood — Tue, 03 Oct 2023 14:02:25 GMT

I currently have a regular account that has access to a private app and have just created an app developer account. How can I link my app developer account to this private app so I can begin making API calls with my developer API key?

Hi, there! I think there is some confusion happening here. You cannot connect a portal's Private App to a developer account. You can connect a Public App created in a Developer account to a portal.

Can you tell the community more about the endpoints you want to use and what your goal is?

Here's some helpful documentation:

Best,

Hi Jaycee!

I think I might just be confused, I'll try to explain what my end goal is and maybe you can offer some suggestions. I have an application that I am collecting form submission data from via Hubspot (currently I have the Marketing Hub Professional subscription and it's probably worth mentioning that these are all non-Hubspot forms). My problem is that form submissions are being sent to Hubspot even when validation checks do not fully pass (there are a few requests I make after the submit button is pressed in order to validate user information). So, in short, I want to be able to control when information is sent to Hubspot on form submissions.

My current idea to solve this is to use the POST /crm/v3/timeline/events endpoint to post form submission events. However, it seems that I need an eventTemplateId in order to make these requests. I have searched around the Hubspot dashboard and have been unable to find a location that I could create new event templates or find eventTemplateIds associated with exisiting event templates. So I have been attempting to GET/POST these endpoints but have been unable to get a succesful request through using just our private app access token... so I thought that I needed a developer account in order to access that but it appears now that this isn't possible since you cannot link a developer account to a private app?

Any suggestions you have for solving this problem would be greatly appreciated!
