GitHub Integration - hubspot.config.yml Error

Develop, Build & Integrate APIs & Integrations
1

Hello everyone,

After setting up my local environment and my default hs account, I was trying to create a GitHub action to continous integration with the CMS.

The problem is once I commit I receive this message on the action deploy:

Error: Unable to load config from environment variables.

Error: A hubspot.config.yml file could not be found. To create a new config file, use the “hs init” command.

Error: An account needs to be supplied either via “--account” or through setting a “defaultPortal”

Error: No config was found

Error: Process completed with exit code 1.

Could it be because I added hubspot.config.yml to .gitignore?
I’m a bit confused because before adding it everything was running without errors except I was receiving this warning:
[WARNING] Security Issue Detected

[WARNING] The HubSpot file can be tracked by git

[WARNING] To remediate:

-Move the config file to your home directory (which I did and did not solve the issue)
- Add .gitignore pattern “hubspot.config.yml” to a .gitignore file in your repository (which I also did)

-Ensure that the config file has not already been pushed to a remote repository (what’s the best way to undo this action if this is the cause of the problem?)
I’d appreciate your help a lot :slightly_smiling_face:
Thank you!

Hey, @FilipaPF :waving_hand: Thanks for reaching out. Did you get his resolved?

In my understanding of things, it is a good practice to add hubspot.config.yml to .gitignore to prevent exposing sensitive data such as API keys.

Have you considered using GitHub Encrypted Secrets for your project?

Best,
