HubSpot API key

Develop, Build & Integrate APIs & Integrations

I need to generate a HubSpot API key so we can plug it into our new CRM, One Mortgage System (OMS). We plan to use the HubSpot Starter tier for our marketing function. To generate this key, I have been directed by OMS to follow the “Create Legacy App” instructions, and from there, copy the access token. I’ve followed everything as instructed, but I keep coming across this error.

Any help here to fix this would be great.

Thanks

Hi @MerryMarketing,

For your use case, I recommend using Service Keys instead of the Legacy Apps

Hope this helps!

Hi Elvadas,

Thanks for your response. I have tried Service Keys and that too has the same issue.
Please have a look at what happens.

It would be great to get a solution for this. We do plan on moving our tier to the paid version, but ideally, we’d need this sorted out first so we can work more productively.

Many thanks :blush:

Hi @MerryMarketing,

Thank you for sharing the recording. It is strange. You should still be able to use it on a free plan.

Can you look into the HAR file to see if get more details about the error?

Hi there,

I’ve created the HAR file. Please find it here:

HAR File HubSpot Error.har

Hopefully this helps.

Looking forward to your response.

Hey @MerryMarketing,

Thanks for sharing the HAR file. The error showing INTERNAL_ERROR with shouldRetry: false can sometimes point to a portal-level permissions or account configuration issue rather than something on your end.

If you’re following the steps from @evaldas, are you able to confirm your portal is enrolled in this beta here? Additionally, are you able to confirm if you’re an Admin in the portal?

Thanks for your help so far, @evaldas!

Best,

Sam

Hi SamTassey, thanks for stepping in.

Yes, the portal is enrolled in the beta. And yes, I am the admin.

I DM’d you the ID portal, but I haven’t received any response unfortunately. Would you be able to have a look at it please?

Thanks
