hubspot_oauth2client

Minimal Hubspot OAuth2 integration in Python

Project maintained by strogonoff Hosted on GitHub Pages — Theme by mattgraham

Lightweight helper for authenticating with Hubspot’s OAuth2. Mimics a small part of Google’s oauth2client API for convenience.

Install

pip install hubspot_oauth2client

Example usage with Django

Prerequisites

Given your Django setup has an URL pattern named “home” with no parameters, and three following settings:

HUBSPOT_OAUTH_SECRET = 'path/to/hubspot_client_secret.json'
"""
Path to a JSON file containing a single object
{"client_id": "...", "client_secret": "..."},
where ID and secret are specific to your Hubspot app
(find them in your developer’s dashboard).
"""

HUBSPOT_OAUTH_SCOPES = ['contacts']
"""
List of OAuth 2.0 scopes as string identifiers.
"""

HUBSPOT_OAUTH_CREDENTIALS_SESSION_KEY = 'hubspot_oauth_token'
"""
Key under which Django will store serialized access/refresh
credentials in ``request.session`` for later
authenticated API calls on behalf of the user.
"""

View

A fairly complete implementation of a hubspot_oauth view could look like this:

# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
from __future__ import unicode_literals

import logging
import requests

from django import http
from django.urls import reverse
from django.conf import settings
from django.contrib import messages

from hubspot_oauth2client import client


log = logging.getLogger('django.hubspot_oauth')


def hubspot_oauth(request):
    """
    With no parameters, initiates OAuth 2.0 flow.

    If ``code`` parameter is present in GET query,
    assumes user has been redirected from Hubspot
    and attempts to exchange that code
    for access & refresh tokens.

    Obtained credentials are stored in session
    in serialized form.
    """
    flow = client.flow_from_clientsecrets(
        settings.HUBSPOT_OAUTH_SECRET,
        settings.HUBSPOT_OAUTH_SCOPES,
        redirect_uri=request.build_absolute_uri(reverse('hubspot_oauth')))

    auth_code = request.GET.get('code', None)

    if auth_code:
        if settings.HUBSPOT_OAUTH_CREDENTIALS_SESSION_KEY in request.session:
            del request.session[settings.HUBSPOT_OAUTH_CREDENTIALS_SESSION_KEY]

        try:
            credentials = flow.step2_exchange(auth_code)

        except client.CodeExchangeError:
            log.exception("Hubspot rejected OAuth2 code")
            messages.error(
                request,
                "Couldn’t authenticate Hubspot right now. Try again?")

        except client.BadCodeExchangeResponse:
            log.exception("Bad OAuth2 code exchange response")
            messages.error(
                request,
                "Couldn’t authenticate Hubspot right now. Try again?")

        except requests.exceptions.ConnectionError:
            log.exception("Error reaching Hubspot to exchange OAuth2 code")
            messages.error(
                request,
                "Couldn’t reach Hubspot to complete authentication. "
                "Try again?")

        else:
            request.session[settings.HUBSPOT_OAUTH_CREDENTIALS_SESSION_KEY] = (
                credentials.to_json())

        return http.HttpResponseRedirect(reverse('home'))

    else:
        auth_uri = flow.step1_get_authorize_url()
        return http.HttpResponseRedirect(auth_uri)

Given that you only need to define an URL pattern pointing to this view, and your app can direct users to it when necessary to initiate OAuth 2.0 flow.

Making authenticated calls

Per our view implementation, access token is stored in request.session in serialized form after user completes the authentication successfully. You can use those access credentials to make authenticated API calls later.

Here’s a somewhat abridged example in which we obtain a list of all contacts available to the portal user has selected during authentication:

import urllib
import requests

from django import shortcuts

from hubspot_oauth2client import client


def get_contacts(request):
    creds_blob = request.session.get(settings.HUBSPOT_OAUTH_CREDENTIALS_SESSION_KEY)

    if creds_blob:
        creds = client.OAuth2Credentials.from_json(creds_blob)

        if not creds.access_token_expired:
            get_query = {'property': ['country', 'hs_lead_status']}

            requests.get('{hapi_base}/{area}/{endpoint}/?{query}'.format(
                hapi_base='https://api.hubapi.com',
                area='/contacts/v1',
                endpoint='/lists/all/contacts/all',
                query=urllib.urlencode(get_query, do_seq=True),
            ), headers={
                'Authorization': 'Bearer {0}'.format(creds.access_token),
            })

    return shortcuts.redirect('hubspot_oauth')

Calling APIs without requiring user’s input

If you need to make authenticated Hubspot API calls in absence of request.session (for example, from an async task), you would want to:
