Hello everyone,

I am trying to build an App that would be able to manage custom object. But as far as I can see, on my App settings I should select the scope “Change Custom object definitions” which actually does not exist (or can you point me if I am saying something wrong ?).

This is also what I understand on the documentation: [Accounts Dashboard | HubSpot](https://developers.hubspot.com/docs/api/crm/crm-custom-objects) , as there is no scope for the “Create a new schema” API call, this means it is not available to Apps (OAuth), but only through API keys.

In the meantime I found on the Marketplace the App called “Custom Objects HQ”. which has this “Change custom object definitions” scope…

Am i doing something wrong ? Is it possible to obtain this scope ? Or has this App some privilege with Hubspot that make it possible to have this functionnality, but not for me ?

Thanks for any answer.

@MFertani

Have you looked into the [Custom Objects Pilot Program](https://developers.hubspot.com/docs/api/custom-objects-schema-pilot)? You would have to apply to this before you can build an app that uses oauth.
