HubSpot's official remote MCP server (GA since April 2026) connects an AI client to your CRM — contacts, companies, deals, tickets and engagements — so Claude can research accounts, update records and draft follow-ups. Here's the setup.
Setup — official remote server
Add HubSpot's hosted endpoint (mcp.hubspot.com) as a remote/OAuth connector:
{
"mcpServers": {
"hubspot": {
"url": "https://mcp.hubspot.com/anthropic"
}
}
}
The exact path is shown in HubSpot's MCP settings for your client; authorise through HubSpot OAuth on first use and pick the portal. For stdio-only clients, bridge with npx -y mcp-remote <url>. Restart the client; see MCP config file location.
There's also a developer MCP
Separately, HubSpot ships a local developer MCP for app/CMS development (building on the HubSpot platform). That's different from the CRM data server above — pick based on whether you're working with CRM data or building HubSpot apps.
Verify
Ask: "Find the 5 deals closing this month in HubSpot and summarise each contact's last activity." Real CRM data back confirms it works.
Common problems
- Wrong portal — re-run OAuth and select the right HubSpot account.
- Missing scopes — your user/app lacks access to that object; adjust permissions in HubSpot.

Security
CRM data is sensitive customer PII. Grant least-privilege access, prefer read-only when you don't need writes, and review what the connector can do. See MCP security best practices.
