## Overview

[HubSpot](https://www.hubspot.com/) is an AI-powered customer relationship management (CRM) platform.

The `ballerinax/hubspot.crm.lists` offers APIs to connect and interact with the [HubSpot CRM Lists API](https://developers.hubspot.com/docs/reference/api/crm/lists) endpoints, specifically based on the [HubSpot REST API](https://developers.hubspot.com/docs/reference/api/overview)

## Setup guide

To use the HubSpot CRM Lists connector, you must have access to the HubSpot API through a HubSpot developer account and a HubSpot App under it. Therefore you need to register for a developer account at HubSpot if you don't have one already.

### Step 1: Create/Login to a HubSpot Developer Account

If you have an account already, go to the [HubSpot developer portal](https://app.hubspot.com/)

If you don't have a HubSpot Developer Account you can sign up for a free account [here](https://developers.hubspot.com/get-started)

### Step 2 (Optional): Create a Developer Test Account

Within app developer accounts, you can create a [developer test account](https://developers.hubspot.com/beta-docs/getting-started/account-types#developer-test-accounts) under your account to test apps and integrations without affecting any real HubSpot data.

> **Note:** These accounts are only for development and testing purposes. In production, you should not use Developer Test Accounts.

1. Go to the Test Account section from the left sidebar.

![Hubspot developer portal](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ballerina-platform/module-ballerinax-hubspot.crm.lists/main/docs/setup/resources/test_acc_1.png)

2. Click Create developer test account.

![Creating a hubspot test account](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ballerina-platform/module-ballerinax-hubspot.crm.lists/main/docs/setup/resources/test_acc_2.png)

3. In the dialogue box, give a name to your test account and click "Create".

![Adding a name and description for the test account](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ballerina-platform/module-ballerinax-hubspot.crm.lists/main/docs/setup/resources/test_acc_3.png)

### Step 3: Create a HubSpot App under your account

1. In your developer account, navigate to the "Apps" section. Click on "Create App"

![Creating a new App](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ballerina-platform/module-ballerinax-hubspot.crm.lists/main/docs/setup/resources/create_app_1.png)

2. Provide the necessary details, including the app name and description.

### Step 4: Configure the Authentication Flow

1. Move to the Auth Tab.

![Selecting the Auth tab](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ballerina-platform/module-ballerinax-hubspot.crm.lists/main/docs/setup/resources/create_app_2.png)

2. In the Scopes section, add the following scopes for your app using the "Add new scope" button.

* `crm.lists.read`
* `crm.lists.write`
* `cms.membership.access_groups.write`

![List of scopes](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ballerina-platform/module-ballerinax-hubspot.crm.lists/main/docs/setup/resources/scope_set.png)

The scopes listed above are the mandatory scopes needed to use the HubSpot CRM Lists API. However, you may need to add additional scopes based on your use case. For example, if you are working with contacts, you may need to add `crm.objects.contacts.read` and `crm.objects.contacts.write` scopes as well.

3. Add your Redirect URI in the relevant section. You can also use `localhost` addresses for local development purposes. Click "Create App".

![Adding the redirect URI and save](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ballerina-platform/module-ballerinax-hubspot.crm.lists/main/docs/setup/resources/create_app_final.png)

### Step 5: Get your Client ID and Client Secret

Navigate to the Auth section of your app. Make sure to save the provided Client ID and Client Secret.

![Client ID and secret of the App](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ballerina-platform/module-ballerinax-hubspot.crm.lists/main/docs/setup/resources/get_credentials.png)

### Step 6: Setup Authentication Flow

Before proceeding with the Quickstart, ensure you have obtained the Access Token using the following steps:

1. Create an authorization URL using the following format:

```
https://app.hubspot.com/oauth/authorize?client_id=&scope=&redirect_uri=
```

Replace the ``, ``, and `` with your specific value.

2. Paste it in the browser and select your developer test account to install the app when prompted. Provide consent for all scopes needed.

![Selecting the App for OAuth process](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ballerina-platform/module-ballerinax-hubspot.crm.lists/main/docs/setup/resources/install_app.png)

3. A code will be displayed in the browser. Copy the code.

4. Run the following curl command. Replace the ``, ``, and `` with your specific value. Use the code you received in the above step 3 as the ``.

- Linux/macOS

```bash
curl --request POST \
--url https://api.hubapi.com/oauth/v1/token \
--header 'content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded' \
--data 'grant_type=authorization_code&code=&redirect_uri=&client_id=&client_secret='
```

- Windows

```bash
curl --request POST ^
--url https://api.hubapi.com/oauth/v1/token ^
--header 'content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded' ^
--data 'grant_type=authorization_code&code=&redirect_uri=&client_id=&client_secret='
```

This command will return the access token necessary for API calls.

```json
{
"token_type": "bearer",
"refresh_token": "",
"access_token": "",
"expires_in": 1800
}
```

5. Store the access token securely for use in your application.

## Quickstart

To use the `HubSpot CRM Lists` connector in your Ballerina application, update the `.bal` file as follows:

### Step 1: Import the module

Import the `hubspot.crm.lists` module and `oauth2` module.

```ballerina
import ballerinax/hubspot.crm.lists as hslists;
import ballerina/oauth2;
```

### Step 2: Instantiate a new connector

1. Create a `Config.toml` file and, configure the obtained credentials in the above steps as follows:

```toml
clientId =
clientSecret =
refreshToken =
```

2. Instantiate an `OAuth2RefreshTokenGrantConfig` with the obtained credentials and initialize the connector with it.

```ballerina
configurable string clientId = ?;
configurable string clientSecret = ?;
configurable string refreshToken = ?;

OAuth2RefreshTokenGrantConfig auth = {
clientId,
clientSecret,
refreshToken,
credentialBearer: oauth2:POST_BODY_BEARER
};

final hslists:Client crmListClient = check new ({auth});
```

### Step 3: Invoke the connector operation

Now, utilize the available connector operations. A sample use case is shown below.

#### Create a CRM List

```ballerina
public function main() returns error? {
hslists:ListCreateRequest payload = {
objectTypeId: "0-1",
processingType: "MANUAL",
name: "my-test-list"
};
hslists:ListCreateResponse response = check crmListClient->post_create(payload);
}
```
