403 Forbidden Error: Missing 'workflows-access-public-api' Scope in External Auth Request

Developer Support APIs & Integrations

Hello HubSpot Community,

I’m encountering a 403 Forbidden error while authenticating an external request with my public app. The error message I’m receiving is:
“status”:“error”,“message”:“EXTERNAL auth request is missing required ‘workflows-access-public-api’ scope.”
From what I understand, the error is related to a missing scope – ‘workflows-access-public-api’. However, I’ve checked the available scopes for public apps, and I can’t seem to find this specific scope listed anywhere.

Any advice on how to resolve the problem or steps I should take to ensure this scope is properly assigned?

Thank you in advance for your help!

Hey @Shrinath are you connecting to a free account? If so a free account doesn’t have access to workflows. Only professional and above subscriptions get access to workflows.
