Where to find private app access token

SOLVE

My login gives me access to two accounts. One is a developer account and one is not. The app I need the private app access token for is on the developer account. But when I look for that token via [Settings -> Integrations -> Private Apps] I get "Private apps aren't available on developer accounts." When I go to Manage apps, my app is listed with no issue. But the private app access token is not listed anywhere under the Auth tab.

Where can I find the private app access token?

Firstly, your have to create "privete app".

https://developers.hubspot.com/docs/api/private-apps

"In your HubSpot account, click the settings icon in the main navigation bar."

(Not developer account, please select hubspot portal you want to work private app)

 

If you want to use the app with a developer account, it means use "public apps".

In this case, you need to "install the app".

Thanks.

Hi.

 

Please check this.

https://developers.hubspot.com/docs/api/private-apps

(Have you created a private app?)

 

Thanks.

That documentation tells me "navigate to the details page of your app. On the Access token card..." which is exactly what I need help locating. If I look for details about my app via [Settings -> Integrations -> Private Apps] I get "Private apps aren't available on developer accounts." When I go to Manage apps and click on my app, I don't see anything about an access token.

So what I've realized is that I have a public app, not a private one. And public apps use oauth instead of an app token. I am still having a problem making new connections to it but perhaps I should make a new question for that
