I am trying to add Timeline events to my client’s contacts. I found this walkthrough: [Accounts Dashboard | HubSpot](https://developers.hubspot.com/docs/api/crm/timeline#endpoint?spec=POST-/crm/v3/timeline/events) on how to do it. I started with the API call to create the event template, but I couldn’t found the `hapikey/developerAPIkey`, jumped into the next section of the tutorial and realized that I don’t even have the `Timeline events` tab on my application:

Clicked on `edit app` and it only gives 3 options:

Where is the Timeline events feature? or how can I create an app to track it? Where is my developerAPIKey?

Hello @FDeSantiago, thank you for posting in our Community!

Typically, your HubSpot API key can be found in the HubSpot Developer portal. Please check the portal, and if you still can’t find it, it might be under the ‘Settings’ or ‘Integration’ section. I want to share this knowledge base here with more information:

- [Access your HubSpot API key](https://knowledge.hubspot.com/integrations/how-do-i-get-my-hubspot-api-key)

The ‘Timeline events’ tab seems missing from your application. Please verify if you have the necessary permission to access Timeline events and if your HubSpot subscription includes the Timeline feature.

To our top experts, @Anton, @deepikaverma, @LMeert any recommendations to @FDeSantiago matter?

Thank you,

Pam
