HubSpot Connection

Manage your HubSpot account connection, view connection status, and learn how to change or disconnect your HubSpot portal.

Viewing Connected Account

When your HubSpot account is connected, you'll see the HubSpot section in Settings with:

  • A card showing your active HubSpot connection
  • Options to Reinstall HubSpot App (to fix issues or update permissions)
  • Option to Disconnect your account

Connection Status

Your HubSpot connection status determines what you see in Settings:

  • Connected: HubSpot account is active and linked. You can generate documents and see connection management options.
  • Disconnected: No HubSpot account is linked. The HubSpot section doesn't appear in Settings.
  • Issues: If permissions are missing or there's a connection problem, use Reinstall HubSpot App to fix it.

Multiple HubSpot Accounts

Can I connect multiple HubSpot accounts?

Each PDF CreateMate organization connects to one HubSpot account. To work with multiple HubSpot portals:

  1. Create separate PDF CreateMate organizations
  2. Connect each to a different HubSpot portal
  3. Use different email addresses if needed

Creating a Second Account

To use PDF CreateMate with another HubSpot account:

  1. Log out of PDF CreateMate
  2. Register with a different email
  3. Connect to the second HubSpot portal
  4. Manage each organization separately
Credits and subscriptions are per-organization. Each organization needs its own plan.

Changing the Connected Account

Disconnecting Current Account

To disconnect your current HubSpot account:

  1. Go to Settings
  2. Scroll to the Disconnect HubSpot Account card
  3. Click Disconnect
  4. Type "DISCONNECT" to confirm
  5. Click Yes, Disconnect

What Happens When You Disconnect?

  • PDF CreateMate loses access to HubSpot data
  • Templates remain but cannot generate documents
  • Previous generated PDFs stay in HubSpot
  • You can reconnect the same or different account

Connecting a New Account

To connect a HubSpot account:

  1. Go to Settings
  2. If available, click Reinstall HubSpot App to start the connection flow
  3. You'll be redirected to HubSpot authorization
  4. Log into the HubSpot account you want to connect
  5. Grant the requested permissions
  6. You'll be redirected back to PDF CreateMate
  7. Connection is complete
If the Reinstall button is not visible, you may need to log out and reconnect during the onboarding process.

Disconnecting Completely

From PDF CreateMate

See "Disconnecting Current Account" above.

From HubSpot

You can also disconnect from HubSpot's side:

  1. Go to HubSpot Settings > Integrations > Connected Apps
  2. Find PDF CreateMate
  3. Click Uninstall
  4. Confirm
Disconnecting from either side (PDF CreateMate or HubSpot) breaks the connection. To reconnect, go to Settings and click Reinstall HubSpot App, or reconnect during onboarding.

Reauthorization

Sometimes you need to reauthorize your HubSpot connection:

When Reauthorization Is Needed

  • HubSpot permissions changed
  • Long period of inactivity
  • HubSpot security requirements
  • After HubSpot API updates
  • Connection errors or permission issues

How to Reauthorize

  1. Go to Settings
  2. Find the HubSpot section
  3. Click Reinstall HubSpot App
  4. You'll be redirected to HubSpot
  5. Review and approve the permissions
  6. You'll be redirected back to PDF CreateMate
  7. Connection is restored
