The XO Platform lets you easily connect the HubSpot integration to create, view, update, search and delete deals. You can also create, view, update, search and delete contacts using the pre-built templates. Click the HubSpot link to know more.
This article explains how to authorize and enable the HubSpot action and install the pre-built templates.
Authorizations Supported
The Kore.ai XO Platform supports OAuth 2.0 authentication to allow a HubSpot integration to exchange data. For more information, see Setting Up Authorization Using OAuth v2 article.
The Kore.ai XO Platform supports the following authorization types for the HubSpot CRM integration:
- Pre-Authorize the Integration – To make the integration process smoother for developers and customers, you can pre-authorize it by providing the necessary authorization credentials to obtain the access token.
- Allow Users to Authorize the Integration – This method requires the end user to provide credentials during the conversation for authorization. This authorization process involves requesting permission for Kore.ai’s HubSpot app to access an access token at runtime.
Authorization Type | OAuth – System | OAuth – Custom |
Pre-authorize the Integration | Yes | Yes |
Allow Users to Authorize the Integration | Yes | Yes |
