A quickstart app for integrators looking to use HubSpot's OAuth 2.0. Written in Node.js.
Note: This app does not store any data in a persistent way, so restarting the app will clear the retrieved access tokens.
-
Redirect to HubSpot's OAuth 2.0 server
When you open your browser to
https://localhost:3000/install
, the app will redirect you to the authorization page on HubSpot's server. Here you will choose which account you'd like to install the app in and give consent for it to act on your behalf. When this is complete, HubSpot will redirect you back to the app. -
Exchange an authorization code for access tokens
Now that you're back in the app, it will retrieve an access token and refresh token from HubSpot's server, using an authorization code that was supplied by HubSpot when you granted access to the app.
-
Retrieve a contact
When the app has received an access token, it will redirect you to
https://localhost:3000/
. It will then use the access token to make a query to HubSpot's Contacts API, and display the retrieved contact's name on the page.

- Clone the repository:
$ git clone [email protected]:HubSpot/oauth-quickstart-nodejs.git
- Create a
.env
file in the root of the repository with the ID and secret for your app (found on the app settings page), eg:You can also add aCLIENT_ID='xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx' CLIENT_SECRET='yyyyyyyy-yyyy-yyyy-yyyy-yyyyyyyyyyyy' SCOPE='crm.contacts.read,forms'

- Open your browser to
https://localhost:3000/install
to kick off the OAuth 2.0 flow
- Build an image of the quickstart app
$ docker build -t hs-oauth-quickstart:latest https://github.com/HubSpot/oauth-quickstart-nodejs.git
- Run a container with the new image
$ docker run --init -it -p 3000:3000 -e CLIENT_SECRET=$CLIENT_SECRET -e CLIENT_ID=$CLIENT_ID -e SCOPE=contacts,forms hs-oauth-quickstart:latest
