How to Connect Claude to HubSpot

Connect HubSpot to Claude to look up contacts, deals and tickets and to create or update records. Claude cannot delete records.

To connect Claude to HubSpot, go to Customize > Connectors, select HubSpot, choose Connect to Claude and sign in to your HubSpot account. Claude can then search and read your CRM records and engagement history, and create or update records, log activities and work with marketing content such as emails, landing pages and blog posts.

HubSpot's guide says a paid Claude plan (Pro, Max, Team or Enterprise) is required, while Anthropic's connectors page says web connectors are available to all users. The connector does not delete records. Claude sees only what your own HubSpot permissions allow, and a Super Admin must approve it first for most users.

Good for

  • Sales reps who want deal summaries and pre-call context from their CRM
  • Marketers who want campaign, email and landing page reports
  • Support and success teams who want open tickets and tasks listed
  • HubSpot Super Admins deciding who may connect

If HubSpot adds access to new objects, each user reconnects to get it. HubSpot's guide requires a paid Claude plan, while Anthropic's connectors page says web connectors are available to all users.

Verdict

Our advice: use the built-in HubSpot connector with Write tools set to Needs approval. Use HubSpot's local server with a read-only token if Claude should never change a record.

Our advice: the built-in connector fits most HubSpot teams because it respects each person's permissions and cannot delete. Ask a Super Admin to approve it before rollout, and keep write approvals on.

Best for

  • Pre-call prep and pipeline reviews from a chat
  • Logging notes and updating deals with a confirmation step
  • Campaign and email performance questions

Skip it if

  • You are on the Free Claude plan, which HubSpot's guide excludes
  • You need Claude to delete records
  • Your HubSpot account has Sensitive Data on and you need call or email history

Questions

Which Claude plans can use the HubSpot connector?

HubSpot's guide (updated October 19, 2026) says you need a paid Claude plan: Pro, Max, Team or Enterprise. Anthropic's connectors page says web connectors are available to all users, so the two pages disagree about Free. You also need a HubSpot user account, and HubSpot lists the connector as available on all its products and plans.

Why can I not connect HubSpot to Claude?

Most likely a Super Admin has not approved the connector yet. Only Super Admins and users with App Marketplace Access can connect without prior approval. Ask a Super Admin to approve it and pick the data permissions.

Can Claude delete HubSpot records?

No. HubSpot says the connector can view, create and update but not delete. You can still delete data yourself in HubSpot.

Can Claude update my deals and contacts?

Yes. It can create and update CRM records and log activities, notes and tasks. HubSpot's table also lists create and update for marketing emails, landing pages, website pages and blog posts. Bulk changes stop at 10 records at a time.

Is it safe to connect Claude to HubSpot?

Our advice: yes, if you keep approvals on. Claude sees only what your HubSpot role allows, and HubSpot records every create and update in the Audit Log. Set Write tools to Needs approval so nothing changes without you.

Does Claude see emails, calls and notes?

Yes, unless Sensitive Data is on in your HubSpot account. Then Claude cannot read any engagement data.

Can I connect more than one HubSpot account?

One at a time. To switch to another HubSpot account, disconnect the current one and connect the other.

Does it work on mobile and in Claude Code?

On web, desktop and mobile, yes. In Claude Code, connectors added in claude.ai appear when you sign in with your Claude account.

How do I disconnect HubSpot from Claude?

Is the HubSpot connector the same as the HubSpot MCP server?

It runs on HubSpot's hosted MCP server. The listing gives the connector URL as https://mcp.hubspot.com/anthropic, and HubSpot's guide links its admin controls under Remote MCP. The connector adds one-click setup inside Claude.
