Query HubSpot Data in MySQL Workbench

MySQL Workbench allows users to administer MySQL environments and gain better visibility into databases. When paired with CData Connect (on-premise or Connect Server), you get live access to HubSpot data as if it were a MySQL database. This article shows how to create a virtual database for HubSpot in Connect and work with live HubSpot data in MySQL Workbench.

Create a Virtual MySQL Database for HubSpot Data

CData Connect uses a straightforward, point-and-click interface to connect to data sources and generate APIs.

1. Login to Connect and click Connections.
2. Select "HubSpot" from Available Data Sources.
3. HubSpot uses OAuth to authenticate. Click Connect to authenticate with HubSpot.
4. Click Privileges -> Add and add the new user (or an existing user) with the appropriate permissions.

With the virtual database created, you are ready to connect to HubSpot from MySQL Workbench.
