Adding Associations to a HubSpot Custom Object Record

I am using the API request action in Zapier to create a record for a Custom Object in HubSpot, and also trying to create one association to a Company. When I test the step, the creation of the record works perfectly, but the association is not being created. Am I doing something wrong? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Below is the JSON of how I’m making the record and also trying to create the association:

PS. I have also tried to create the association on a separate step, but it says that the action I am trying to take is out of scope. Even though I have added all of the necessary things to the HubSpot private app.

Hi @MichelleT 

Can you link to the HubSpot API endpoint you are referencing to configure the Zap action step?

We would also need to see the screenshots with how the full Zap step is configured.

Hi @Troy Tessalone 

The URL I’m using for the “successful” request is this: https://api.hubapi.com/crm/v3/objects/2-22839721

And the one for the associations alone that won’t work is this: https://api.hubapi.com/crm/v3/schemas/2-22839721/associations

Oh, hi @Troy Tessalone sorry I missed the screenshots for the full steps. Here they are!

This is for the “success”:

This is for the “out of scope”:

 They both have the same additional request headers:

 

These are the settings other than the JSON body already shared.

Have you tried using the newest HubSpot API v4?

I had tried that path very briefly before, but didn’t really find much documentation on my own and thought it was going to be more complicated. Just tried with the help of the link you shared, and it works. Thank you!
