Bad Request errors setting up account auth in HubSpot CLI

iBos — Thu, 16 Oct 2025 15:56:10 GMT

Following the instructions in the developer documentation, I've installed hubspot cli (v7.8.0)

Calling hs get-started gives an error [ERROR] A hubspot.config.yml file could not be found

Calling hs init or hs account auth gives a massive node.js error, the detailMessage is 'The request was bad.'

I've tried that in a REST client with the payload extracted from the error message and I get a 202 OK response

Any help?

Can you share your Node version?

As the documentations states "To develop on HubSpot locally, you’ll need to install Node.js, ... Versions 20 or higher are supported."

Please check whether this is the issue.
