Section

Security

Expand
  • OAuth authentication for secure access
  • Respect data privacy regulations
  • Monitor API usage and limits
  • Regular data audits recommended
  • HubSpot API keys and private app access tokens must be securely stored and never exposed in client-side code or public repositories - use environment variables and secure credential management
  • HubSpot OAuth access tokens should be used for third-party integrations to ensure proper access control, token lifecycle management, and automatic token refresh
  • HubSpot contact, deal, and company IDs may expose customer data and business information - ensure HubSpot resource identifiers are kept private and not shared in public configurations
  • Rate limiting and API quota management are critical for HubSpot MCP servers - implement proper rate limit handling, retry logic, and quota monitoring to prevent service disruption
  • HubSpot webhook configurations and payloads may contain sensitive customer data and business information - ensure webhook endpoints are properly secured with authentication and HTTPS encryption

Troubleshooting

Expand

HTTP 429 error: rate limit exceeded on API calls

OAuth apps limited to 110 requests per 10 seconds per account. Wait for rate limit window to reset. Implement throttling with max 11 requests/second to stay within burst limit.

HTTP 429 error: rate limit exceeded on API callsDetails

OAuth apps limited to 110 requests per 10 seconds per account. Wait for rate limit window to reset. Implement throttling with max 11 requests/second to stay within burst limit.

Search API hitting rate limit with only few requestsDetails

Search endpoints limited to 4 requests per second per token. Add 250ms delays between search operations. Consider caching search results to reduce API calls.

HTTP 401 unauthorized - OAuth token invalidDetails

Check access token expiration (look at expires_in parameter). Re-authenticate to get new OAuth token. Verify token has correct scopes for HubSpot API access (contacts, deals, etc).

HTTP 403 forbidden when accessing CRM objectsDetails

Verify OAuth token has required scopes. Contacts access needed for contacts, content access for deals. Check account permissions in HubSpot settings and re-authenticate with correct scopes.

Error rate exceeds 5% causing marketplace issuesDetails

Reduce failed requests by implementing proper error handling. Validate input before API calls. Check API responses and fix 4xx errors in your code to lower error rate below 5%.

HubSpot MCP server authentication errors with API keysDetails

Verify API key is valid and not expired. Check API key permissions match required operations. Ensure API key format is correct (Bearer token in Authorization header). For OAuth integrations, verify token refresh logic is working correctly.

HubSpot rate limit errors when processing multiple requestsDetails

Implement exponential backoff retry logic with jitter. Use HubSpot API rate limit headers to monitor usage. Reduce concurrent requests. Cache frequently accessed contact data. HubSpot allows 100 requests per 10 seconds per API key.

HubSpot contact or deal access denied errorsDetails

Verify API key has access to the contact or deal. Check account permissions and user role. Ensure API key has required scopes (contacts, deals, companies) for target operations.

HubSpot MCP server connection timeouts or network errorsDetails

Check network connectivity and firewall settings. Verify HubSpot API endpoints are accessible. Increase request timeout values. Implement connection pooling and retry mechanisms with exponential backoff.
