Hubspot Connector for MS ExcelHubspot Connector can be used to integrate Hubspot and your data source, e.g. Microsoft SQL Server, Oracle, Excel, Power BI, etc. Get, write, delete Hubspot data in a few clicks! In this article you will learn how to quickly and efficiently integrate Hubspot data in MS Excel without coding. We will use high-performance Hubspot Connector to easily connect to Hubspot and then access the data inside MS Excel. Let's follow the steps below to see how we can accomplish that! Hubspot Connector for MS Excel is based on ZappySys API Driver which is part of ODBC PowerPack. It is a collection of high-performance ODBC drivers that enable you to integrate data in SQL Server, SSIS, a programming language, or any other ODBC-compatible application. ODBC PowerPack supports various file formats, sources and destinations, including REST/SOAP API, SFTP/FTP, storage services, and plain files, to mention a few. |

Create ODBC Data Source (DSN) based on ZappySys API Driver
Step-by-step instructions
To get data from Hubspot using MS Excel we first need to create a DSN (Data Source) which will access data from Hubspot. We will later be able to read data using MS Excel. Perform these steps:
-
Download and install ODBC PowerPack.
-
Open ODBC Data Sources (x64):
-
Create a User data source (User DSN) based on ZappySys API Driver
ZappySys API Driver-
Create and use User DSN
if the client application is run under a User Account.
This is an ideal option
in design-time , when developing a solution, e.g. in Visual Studio 2019. Use it for both type of applications - 64-bit and 32-bit. -
Create and use System DSN
if the client application is launched under a System Account, e.g. as a Windows Service.
Usually, this is an ideal option to use
in a production environment . Use ODBC Data Source Administrator (32-bit), instead of 64-bit version, if Windows Service is a 32-bit application.
-
Create and use User DSN
if the client application is run under a User Account.
This is an ideal option
-
When the Configuration window appears give your data source a name if you haven't done that already, then select "Hubspot" from the list of Popular Connectors. If "Hubspot" is not present in the list, then click "Search Online" and download it. Then set the path to the location where you downloaded it. Finally, click Continue >> to proceed with configuring the DSN:
HubspotDSNHubspot -
Now it's time to configure the Connection Manager. Select Authentication Type, e.g. Token Authentication. Then select API Base URL (in most cases, the default one is the right one). More info is available in the Authentication section.
Private apps allow you to use HubSpot's APIs to access specific data from your HubSpot account. You can authorize what each private app can request or change in your account, which will generate an access token that's unique to your app. [API reference]
Steps how to get and use Hubspot credentials
Follow these instructions to create a Private app in HubSpot and configure HubSpot authentication in SSIS package or ODBC data source:
- First of all, go to HubSpot portal.
-
Then click Data Management option on the left
and then hit Integrations menu item:
-
Move on by clicking Private Apps menu item
and then click Create a private app button to create one:
- Then continue by following the instructions on HubSpot Docs.
-
Once you create an app, go to SSIS package or ODBC data source and in Private App authentication set these parameters:
- For AccessToken field use Access token value from the Private app configuration in HubSpot.
- Done! Now you are ready to use HubSpot Connector!
Fill in all required parameters and set optional parameters if needed:
HubspotDSNHubspotPrivate app (Static Access Token) [Http]https://api.hubapi.comRequired Parameters AccessToken Fill-in the parameter... Optional Parameters RetryMode RetryWhenStatusCodeMatch RetryStatusCodeList 429 RetryCountMax 5 RetryMultiplyWaitTime True In HubSpot, a public app is a type of integration that can be installed on customer accounts or listed on the App Marketplace. It requires authentication via OAuth. Once a user installs your app on their HubSpot account, you’ll be able to make API calls to that account using an OAuth access token. [API reference]
Steps how to get and use Hubspot credentials
Follow these instructions to create a Public app in HubSpot and configure HubSpot authentication in SSIS package or ODBC data source:
- First of all, if you don't have HubSpot Developer's account, register one.
- Go to HubSpot and select your Developer account.
-
Click Apps on the left hand side and then click Create app button to create a Public app:
-
Then continue by following the instructions in HubSpot Docs.
NOTE: If you don't have a working Redirect URL, you can use
https://zappysys.com/oauth
(it's safe).- Once you create an app, go to SSIS package or ODBC data source and in Public app authentication set these parameters (use values from your Public app configuration in HubSpot):
- For ClientId field use Client ID value.
- For ClientSecret field use Client secret value.
-
For Scope field use Scopes values, e.g.:
accounting tickets files crm.lists.read crm.lists.write crm.objects.contacts.read crm.objects.contacts.write crm.schemas.contacts.read crm.objects.custom.read crm.objects.custom.write crm.schemas.custom.read crm.objects.companies.read crm.objects.companies.write crm.schemas.companies.read crm.objects.deals.read crm.objects.deals.write crm.schemas.deals.read crm.objects.quotes.read crm.objects.quotes.write crm.schemas.quotes.read crm.objects.line_items.read crm.objects.line_items.write crm.schemas.line_items.read
NOTE: You can use other scopes too, but they must match the scopes defined in your Public app.- For ReturnUrl field use one of Redirect URLs.
- When you are done with that, click Generate Token button to generate Access and Refresh Tokens.
- Done! Now you are ready to use HubSpot Connector!
Fill in all required parameters and set optional parameters if needed:
HubspotDSNHubspotPublic app [OAuth]https://api.hubapi.comRequired Parameters UseCustomApp Fill-in the parameter... Scope (Must Match with App Scopes) Fill-in the parameter... Optional Parameters Client ID Client Secret ReturnUrl RetryMode RetryWhenStatusCodeMatch RetryStatusCodeList 429 RetryCountMax 5 RetryMultiplyWaitTime True
- Once you create an app, go to SSIS package or ODBC data source and in Public app authentication set these parameters (use values from your Public app configuration in HubSpot):
Deprecated authentication method. Use [Private app] instead. [API reference]
Steps how to get and use Hubspot credentials
Using HubSpot API key is deprecated method for authentication. Use Private app authentication instead. If you still need one, then follow these instructions to get HubSpot API key:
- First of all, if you don't have HubSpot Developer's account, register one.
- Go to HubSpot and select your Developer account.
-
Click Apps on the left hand side and then click Get HubSpot API key button to get one:
-
When a popup appears, click Show Key button and then hit Copy button to copy API key:
-
Once copy the API key, go to SSIS package or ODBC data source and use it in API Key authentication configuration:
- Paste it in ApiKey parameter field.
- Done! Now you are ready to use HubSpot Connector!
Fill in all required parameters and set optional parameters if needed:
HubspotDSNHubspotDeveloper API key (Deprecated) [Http]https://api.hubapi.comRequired Parameters ApiKey Fill-in the parameter... Optional Parameters RetryMode RetryWhenStatusCodeMatch RetryStatusCodeList 429 RetryCountMax 5 RetryMultiplyWaitTime True Once the data source connection has been configured, it's time to configure the SQL query. Select the Preview tab and then click Query Builder button to configure the SQL query:

This will generate a query that we will use in MS Excel to retrieve data from Hubspot. Hit OK button to use this query in the next step.
SELECT * FROM Companies --Where Id=123
Some parameters configured in this window will be passed to the Hubspot API, e.g. filtering parameters. It means that filtering will be done on the server side (instead of the client side), enabling you to get only the meaningful datamuch faster .Now hit Preview Data button to preview the data using the generated SQL query. If you are satisfied with the result, use this query in MS Excel:

You can also access data quickly from the tables dropdown by selecting <Select table>.AWHERE
clause,LIMIT
keyword will be performed on the client side, meaning that thewhole result set will be retrieved from the Hubspot API first, and only then the filtering will be applied to the data. If possible, it is recommended to use parameters in Query Builder to filter the data on the server side (in Hubspot servers).Click OK to finish creating the data source.
