There's a new version of the HubSpot API

As of November 30, 2022, HubSpot API keys are no longer a supported authentication method for accessing HubSpot APIs. Instead, you should use a private app access token or OAuth to authenticate API calls. Learn more about this change and how to migrate an API key integration to use a private app instead.

Use a previously obtained refresh token to generate a new access token. Access tokens are short lived; you can check the expires_in parameter when generating an access token to determine its lifetime (in seconds). If you need offline access to HubSpot data, store the refresh token you get when initiating your OAuth integration and use it to generate a new access token once the initial one expires.

Note: HubSpot access tokens will fluctuate in size as we change the information that is encoded the tokens. We recommend allowing for tokens to be up to 300 characters to account for any changes we may make.
