  3. What does the 'hapikey' parameter represent in older HubSpot API integrations?

    Answer: A legacy portal-level API key now replaced by private app tokens

    The hapikey was a legacy portal-wide authentication method that HubSpot deprecated in favor of private app access tokens.

  4. How does HubSpot verify that an incoming webhook payload was sent by HubSpot and not a malicious third party?

    Answer: By validating an HMAC-SHA256 signature in the X-HubSpot-Signature header

  5. Which HubSpot API endpoint would you use to retrieve all deals associated with a specific contact?

    Answer: GET /crm/v3/objects/contacts/{contactId}/associations/deals

  7. In HubSpot's CRM v3 API, what is the significance of the 'archived' parameter in GET requests?

    Answer: It includes soft-deleted records in the response when set to true
