How to Integrate OpenAI with HubSpot

Set Up Your Environment

• Ensure that you have access to both an OpenAI API key and a HubSpot account with developer access.

 

• Install the necessary software tools such as a modern IDE (e.g., VSCode) and make sure Python is installed on your system for scripting purposes.

Acquire OpenAI API Key

• Log in to your OpenAI account and navigate to the API section to generate a new API key.

 

• Save this API key securely, as you will need it for authentication in subsequent steps.

Configure HubSpot Access

• Log into your HubSpot account and access the Developer account settings to obtain your HubSpot API key. This is critical for making API requests to HubSpot.

 

• Ensure that any HubSpot objects you want to integrate with are available and accessible via the API.

Install Required Libraries

• Open your terminal and create a new directory for your project. Navigate into this directory.

 

• Use the following pip commands to install necessary libraries:

pip install openai
pip install requests

Create a Python Script for Integration

• Create a new Python file in your project directory (e.g., integration.py).

 

• Initialize the script with libraries and API keys as follows:

import openai
import requests

openai.api_key = 'your-openai-api-key'
hubspot_api_key = 'your-hubspot-api-key'

Implement OpenAI API Call

• Write a function to utilize the OpenAI API for desired functionality, such as generating content:

def generate_content(prompt):
    response = openai.Completion.create(
      engine="text-davinci-003",
      prompt=prompt,
      max_tokens=100
    )
    return response['choices'][0]['text'].strip()

Implement HubSpot API Call

• Write a function to interact with the HubSpot API. For example, pushing generated content into HubSpot:

def push_to_hubspot(content):
    url = f'https://api.hubapi.com/crm/v3/objects/notes?hapikey={hubspot_api_key}'
    headers = {'Content-Type': 'application/json'}
    data = {
        "properties": {
            "hs_note_body": content
        }
    }
    response = requests.post(url, json=data, headers=headers)
    return response.status_code

Integrate Both APIs

• Create a main function to bring together the previous code components:

def main():
    prompt = "Write a creative sales email for a HubSpot integration."
    content = generate_content(prompt)
    status_code = push_to_hubspot(content)
    if status_code == 201:
        print("Content successfully pushed to HubSpot.")
    else:
        print(f"Failed to push content. Status code: {status_code}")

if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()

Test the Integration

• Run your script in the terminal to test the integration:

python integration.py

Monitor and Debug

• Check both OpenAI and HubSpot dashboards to ensure that requests are logged and processed correctly.

 

• Utilize logging in your script to capture output and error responses for debugging purposes.
