Once you have gathered your required credentials, you can follow the steps below to link your HubSpot account to Platform.
Log in to Adobe Experience Platform and then select Sources from the left navigation bar to access the Sources workspace. The Catalog screen displays a variety of sources for which you can create an account with.
You can select the appropriate category from the catalog on the left-hand side of your screen. Alternatively, you can find the specific source you wish to work with using the search option.
Under the Marketing automation category, select HubSpot. If this is your first time using this connector, select Configure. Otherwise, select Add data to create a new HubSpot connector.
The Connect to HubSpot page appears. On this page, you can either use new credentials or existing credentials.
If you are using new credentials, select New account. On the input form that appears, provide a name, an optional description, and your HubSpot credentials. When finished, select Connect and then allow some time for the new connection to establish.
To connect an existing account, select the HubSpot account you want to connect with, then select Next to proceed.
By following this tutorial, you have established a connection to your HubSpot account. You can now continue on to the next tutorial and configure a dataflow to bring marketing automation system data into Platform.
