A powerful Model Context Protocol (MCP) server implementation for seamless HubSpot CRM integration, enabling AI assistants to interact with your HubSpot data.

Overview

This MCP server provides a comprehensive set of tools for interacting with the HubSpot CRM API, allowing AI assistants to:

  • Create and manage contacts and companies in your HubSpot CRM
  • Retrieve detailed company activity history and engagement timelines
  • Access recent engagement data across your entire HubSpot instance
  • Get lists of recently active companies and contacts
  • Perform CRM operations without leaving your AI assistant interface

Why Use This MCP Server?

  • Seamless AI Integration: Connect your AI assistants directly to your HubSpot CRM data
  • Simplified CRM Operations: Perform common HubSpot tasks through natural language commands
  • Real-time Data Access: Get up-to-date information from your HubSpot instance
  • Secure Authentication: Uses HubSpot's secure API token authentication
  • Extensible Design: Easily add more HubSpot API capabilities as needed

Installation

# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/lkm1developer/hubspot-mcp-server.git
cd hubspot-mcp-server

# Install dependencies
npm install

# Build the project
npm run build

Configuration

The server requires a HubSpot API access token. You can obtain one by:

  1. Going to your HubSpot Developer Account
  2. Creating a private app with the necessary scopes (contacts, companies, engagements)
  3. Copying the generated access token

You can provide the token in two ways:

  1. As an environment variable:

    HUBSPOT_ACCESS_TOKEN=your-access-token
    
  2. As a command-line argument:

    npm start -- --access-token=your-access-token
    

For development, create a .env file in the project root to store your environment variables:

HUBSPOT_ACCESS_TOKEN=your-access-token

Usage

Starting the Server

# Start the server
npm start

# Or with a specific access token
npm start -- --access-token=your-access-token

# Run the SSE server with authentication
npx mcp-proxy-auth node dist/index.js

Implementing Authentication in SSE Server

The SSE server uses the mcp-proxy-auth package for authentication. To implement authentication:

  1. Install the package:

    npm install mcp-proxy-auth
  2. Set the AUTH_SERVER_URL environment variable to point to your API key verification endpoint:

    export AUTH_SERVER_URL=https://your-auth-server.com/verify
  3. Run the SSE server with authentication:

    npx mcp-proxy-auth node dist/index.js
  4. The SSE URL will be available at:

    localhost:8080/sse?apiKey=apikey
    

    Replace apikey with your actual API key for authentication.

The mcp-proxy-auth package acts as a proxy that:

  • Intercepts requests to your SSE server
  • Verifies API keys against your authentication server
  • Only allows authenticated requests to reach your SSE endpoint

Integrating with AI Assistants
