HubSpot Webhooks
When to Use This Skill
- Setting up HubSpot webhook handlers
- Verifying
X-HubSpot-Signature-v3headers - Debugging signature verification failures
- Handling CRM events like contact creation, property changes, or deal events
- Migrating from HubSpot signature v1/v2 to v3
Essential Code (USE THIS)
HubSpot's official SDKs ship a signature helper: Signature.isValid in Node (@hubspot/api-client) and PHP, Signature.is_valid in Python and Ruby. The examples here verify manually with HMAC-SHA256 and base64 so the signed string and the timing-safe comparison are explicit; see references/verification.md for the SDK route.
HubSpot Signature Verification (JavaScript)
Express Webhook Handler
Python (FastAPI) Signature Verification

Common Event Types
HubSpot calls these subscriptionType values. Each webhook delivery contains an array of one or more event objects.
| Event | Description | |
|---|---|---|
contact.creation | A new contact was created | |
contact.propertyChange | A property on a contact changed | |
contact.deletion | A contact was deleted | |
company.creation | A new company was created | |
company.propertyChange | A property on a company changed | |
deal.creation | A new deal was created | |
deal.propertyChange | A property on a deal changed | |
ticket.creation | A new ticket was created |
For full event reference, see HubSpot Webhooks API.
Environment Variables
The signing key is your App's Client Secret (sometimes called Application Secret), not a private app token.
Signature Versions
HubSpot has shipped three signature versions:
- v1 (
X-HubSpot-Signature) - SHA-256 ofclientSecret + body. Deprecated. - v2 (
X-HubSpot-Signature,X-HubSpot-Signature-Version: v2) - SHA-256 ofclientSecret + method + URI + body. Deprecated. - v3 (
X-HubSpot-Signature-v3, requiresX-HubSpot-Request-Timestamp) - HMAC-SHA256 (base64) ofmethod + URI + body + timestamp. Use this.
New integrations should use v3 only. A v4 webhooks API is in beta on HubSpot's new developer platform but uses different mechanics; pin to v3 for stability.
Local Development
Then paste the Hookdeck URL into your HubSpot app's webhook settings as the target URL.
